It mentions that if your OS version is higher than build 15063, the App Installer app is able to download app dependencies (only in release mode) from the Store. Is this all the error message? It should tell you the package name that missed.
Another question is that are you the developer of the app? If you are, did you add the dependencies into the manifest?
