I am new to R and Bioconductor so I am wondering if these installation errors are due to the wrong version of R.   Unfortunately, I tried updating R (in Ubuntu 12.04) but my version of R still remains 2.14.

Follow the instructions at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/
to update your Ubuntu repositories so they point to the latest version
of R.

Yes,  you need to
sudo apt-get insgtall libxml2-dev libcurl-dev
