You have the latest release version.
If you want the devel version (currently 1.9.9), you need to do this:
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
useDevel()

But if you already have packages installed, this will leave you with a
mix of release and devel packages, which is undesirable. You can
maintain a separate R installation for BioC-devel, or read this page
for information about keeping release and devel libraries separate in
a single R installation:
