Package source

BiocManager from CRAN

The reason for using BiocManager instead of biocLite() is mostly to stop sourcing an R script from URL which isn’t so safe. So biocLite() should not be recommended anymore.

It allows to have multiple versions of Bioconductor installed on the same computer. For example, R 3.5 works with Bioconductor 3.7 and 3.8.

On the other hand, setRepositories(ind=1:4) and install.packages() still lets you install Bioconductor packages.
