How can you prevent the following message from displaying in the console?
I've tried both suppressMessages and suppressStartUpMessages with no success.
"Bioconductor version 3.4 (BiocInstaller 1.24.0), ?biocLite for help
A new version of Bioconductor is available after installing the most recenthttp://bioconductor.org/install "

I guess you're trying
> suppressMessages(library(BiocInstaller))
or
> suppressMessages(source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R"))
> sessionInfo()

Both 'work for me', so can you provide additional information, e.g., about your sessionInfo() and how (e.g., in RStudio?) you're seeing the message?
before adding your answer.

You're right. I was looking for the problem in the wrong place. I though the message was appearing when launching a parallel execution of a function while actually it was due to the presence of source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") in my .Rprofile. Silly me, but thanks for helping me.
