[R] Error with install.packages using R v 3.5.1 and 3.5.2

[Jeff Newmiller]

Please ask questions about Bioconductor on the Bioconductor forum [1].

Chances are that you need to re-install Bioconductor because packages are installed in two-digit version-specific libraries... e.g. R 3.4 and R 3.5 do not share packages.
