`rosdistro <https://github.com/ros/rosdistro>`_ contains the central index of ROS packages for all distributions and ``rosdep`` keys for packaged binary dependencies for installation.
When you invoke ``rosdep install ...``, its checking a local cached index from rosdistro (populated during ``rosdep update``) to correlate keys in a ``package.xml`` to the ROS package, python module, or binary to install.
When you invoke ``rosdep install ...``, it is checking a local cached index from rosdistro (populated during ``rosdep update``) to correlate keys in a ``package.xml`` to the ROS package, python module, or binary to install.
