Again, I would suggest using the biocLite() script for installation rather 
than downloading.  So, for example:

biocLite('RBGL')

biocLite will choose the correct versions of the packages for your version of 
R.  Simply downloading the release packages won't do the trick in every case, 
particularly for binary packages.  I'm not sure this is the problem in this 
case, but I would suggest trying this.

Also, it is really important and often helpful to include output from 
sessionInfo() in mails to the list so that everyone knows what version of R, 
what OS, and what versions of packages that you are using.
