should be pointing to the current .zip files.

biocLite() delegates to available.packages(), which should be checking 
the session temporary directory and, since you're in a new session, 
retrieving the rds file above. You could

   debug(available.packages)

and try and figure out where the issue is?

FWIW with a new R installation I could not reproduce your problem.
