I am using macOS 10.12.4 The package 'hgu95acdf' works with R 3.3.3,
but having just upgraded to R 3.4.0 now cannot load 'hgu95acdf'. Here is what I get:

The short solution is to install the missing dependency 'by hand'

biocLite("DBI")

There is somewhere a bug in the logic (I think of install.packages()), and it would be helpful if before installing DBI you tried first

install.packages("hgu95cdf", repos=BiocInstaller::biocinstallRepos())

and report whether that fails or succeeds, and to confirm that there really is no DBI package in your installed packages

"DBI" %in% rownames(installed.packages())

Reporting

.libPaths()

might also be useful

I know the package is there, but still unable to install it - get the same error message as before.

Many! thanks - this worked :-)
Your assistance is much appreciated.
