You need _two_ distinct commands. First

    install.packages("BiocManager")

and second once that is done use it to install 'ggbreak' from BioConductor

    BiocManager::install("ggreak")

The two wrappers I showed in my earlier email do this for you, from the
command-line, which I find pleasant for both shell and docker use.
Preferences of course vary but the key here is that a) ggbreak is a
BioConductor package and b) you must use BiocManager::install() to install
those.
