Answers.Text: try loading the curl package from the R terminal and see if it actually works (`library(curl)`). Maybe some libraries are missing. I use linux and curl requires additional libraries that are not installed by R but are system's libraries.

  I can't comment yet but from what you said it seems that you need to install additional libraries like the one you mentioned: "curl".
  
  from the R terminal you should type:
  
  ```
  install.packages("curl")
  
  ```
  
  then R will install the package. Not sure if there are some other dependencies. If yes R will return you some error message in which there are some package names you need to install.
  
  EDIT:
  
  of course, after installing all the required packages you should be able to install biocLite too.
