This package is not available through CRAN, bioconductor, or Github. You'll have to download the package listed in the link below.

Sounds like your version of R is out of date (which it is, we're up to 3.3.3 now I believe)

Hi,

Download package source:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/mircomb/files/?source=navbar

Then:

install.packages(path_to_file, repos = NULL, type="source")
