You are using BiocInstaller version 1.4.9, which implies that you are 
installing BioC version 2.10. This version didn't have AnnotationForge. 
If you want to upgrade, then follow the instructions on the install page 
of the BioC website:

|source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("BiocUpgrade")

Best,

Jim
