I am having trouble installing DESeq2:

 

biocLite("DESeq2")
BioC_mirror: https://bioconductor.org
Using Bioconductor 3.4 (BiocInstaller 1.24.0), R 3.3.2 (2016-10-31).
Installing package(s) ‘DESeq2’
also installing the dependency ‘S4Vectors’

trying URL 'https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.4/bioc/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.3/S4Vectors_0.12.2.tgz'

Loading required package: S4Vectors
Error in unloadNamespace(package) :

Error in library(pkg, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, lib.loc = lib.loc,  :

IF I DETACH S4VECTORS I GET THIS ERROR WHEN I TRY TO LOAD DESEQ2:

> remove.packages('S4Vectors')
Removing package from ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)

language       R                           
version.string R version 3.3.2 (2016-10-31)

Is there no other way but to update R to 3.3.3 to use DESeq2? 

ANY DESeq2 users suggestions appreciated!

Ok, Martin Morgan was right, I had to start a new session. R --vanilla did not work for some reason so I started new project. I loaded DESeq2 first and then phyloseq. So far so good!

Why don't you want to update to a newer R (e.g. 3.4.1 is current)?

Make sure you do not have any R sessions running.

Start R from the command line, using R --vanilla

Run BiocInstaller::biocValid() and follow directions to update / downgrade individual packages.

Use BiocInstaller:biocLite("S4Vectors") to re-install S4Vectors.

Use library(DESeq2) (no library path) to load DESeq2.

If for some reason you want to install and use packages from a particular library location, do so consistently and in a way that avoids duplicate package installations across active library paths. For instance, set .libPaths() to contain a 'session-specific' library path (e.g., Bioc version 3.4 packages) and a 'system' library path (base and recommended packages only)

This exactly works!
