Try to install packages in R by:

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
    biocLite("matchprobes")

or

Download the package (".tar.gz"/ ".zip"/ ".tgz") from http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.3/bioc/html/matchprobes.html

After downloading, install in R by:

install.packages("/path/of/downloaded/file//matchprobes_1.14.1.tgz", repos = NULL)

or, try from github. See this link, to install packages from github

I tried this process. But it gives warning message:

Installing package into ‘/Users/gtatar/Library/R/3.1/library’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
