installation of bioclite gives an error

Question

Hello everyone, I am trying to install biocLite using BiocManager::install function in rstudio but its giving me an error.

BiocManager::install("biocLite")
Warning message:
package ‘biocLite’ is not available for Bioconductor version '3.16'

A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere,
see the ideas at
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packages 

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thank you

Hi,

Installation via biocLite is no longer used. Please install packages via the BiocManager package, for example:

BiocManager::install('PCAtools')
BiocManager::install('sva')

Go raibh maith agat,

Kevin
