}
\arguments{
  \item{depPkgList}{A \code{Found} element from a \code{pkgDependsList} object}
  \item{\dots}{Arguments to pass on to \code{\link{install.packages}}}
}
\details{
  This function takes as input the \code{Found} list from a
  \code{pkgDependsList} object.  This list will have element names being
  URLs corresponding to repositories and the elements will be vectors of
  package names.  For each element, \code{\link{install.packages}} is
  called for that URL to install all packages listed in the vector.
