When I try to install DESeq2 with BiocManager::install("DESeq2") I get an error message that indicates the package is not available for Bioconductor version 3.17, even though the Bioconductor page for DESeq2 indicates that it is available. Any ideas?
I should also note that I didn't see DESeq2 in the list of deprecated packages for this version of Bioconductor, and that a check of its availability indeed showed that it's not in the list of packages:
> BiocManager::available("DESeq2")
'getOption("repos")' replaces Bioconductor standard repositories, see 'help("repositories", package = "BiocManager")' for details.

Thank you. I've tried multiple times (with or without option force =T) and still get the same error message. It's a bit unusual that I've been able to install other Bioconductor packages today; the inability to find and install DESeq2 is not there for other packages.

ATpoint, it looks like the non-ASCII character that was preventing me from uploading was a tickmark. I had to remove those for it to post, but hopefully the posts will give a full idea of the original output/error.
The answer is in all the warnings - you cannot access bioconductor. Can you get to the bioconductor website using a browser? It may be that your IT is blocking that URI, so maybe you need to talk to them.
Here's my session info:
I should also note that I didn't see DESeq2 in the list of deprecated packages for this version of Bioconductor, and that a check of its availability indeed showed that it's not in the list of packages:
