You're installing a binary (pre-built) package, and your system has to
play by the same rules as the system that was used to build the package.
So you'll need to follow the directions here

  http://r.research.att.com/#other

or, as a more robust long-term solution, configure your system to build
packages from source (also on the page linked above) and use
biocLite("Ruuid", type="source")
