Probably a little more information needed; it sounds like an alternative 
repository is being used, perhaps set on your system in a .Rprofile? Try

  R --vanilla

and then

   source('http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R')

and

   biocinstallRepos()

I get

 > biocinstallRepos()
                                                   BioCsoft
            "http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.9/bioc"
                                                       CRAN
                                    "http://cran.fhcrc.org"
                                                    BioCann
"http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.9/data/annotation"
                                                    BioCexp
"http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.9/data/experiment"
                                                  BioCextra
           "http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.9/extra"

You? If the version '2.9' is different, and you are not setting 
repositories yourself, what does the following produce?

 > tools:::.BioC_version_associated_with_R_version
[1] ‘2.9’
