I don't know if this is an R issue, RStudio issue, or Bioconductor issue.

When I try to install some packages, in this specific case DECIPHER, I get:

> biocLite('DECIPHER', suppressUpdates=T)

Remember that you are using a conda installation, so that the correct way to install Bioconductor packages is to use conda install, NOT biocLite. This is a conda issue, and should be reported there (readers of this forum are not in a position to fix it).
