[BioC] biocLite() and getBioC scripts install development packages!

[Groot, Philip de]

Hello list,
 
I encountered the following problem while trying to install the latest bioconductor 2.1 release: both biocLite() and getBioC() detect that the latest R-release 2.6.0 is a development version (which is NOT the case; I double checked it!). As a result, bioconductor development libraries are being installed, which will fail due to dependency problems (wrong versions of the different required libraries etc).
 
Please fix this!
 
Regards,
