If you use biocLite() it will automatically install CRAN and Bioconductor dependencies for packages.

For example:
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("IRanges") # installs IRanges and its CRAN and Bioconductor dependencies

Note that when submitting to Bioconductor we also run the additional checks found in the BiocCheck package:
