I am trying to install this package "BiocGenerics" in R and getting this error.

I have tried installing it manually but it is failing. And then I tried this command on terminal
sudo apt-get install r-bioc-biocgenerics
This helped me but it installed older version which is not valid for my final package "hgu133plus2.db"
Please help! Best,
