Installation error: there is no package called ‘gridGraphics’

Hello, I am following this link https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/ChIPseeker/inst/doc/ChIPseeker.html to get introduced to ChIPseeker. I tried to install it and clusterProfiler (using the command of bioclite that appears in the Bioconductor page, for both) but the following message comes up:

library(ChIPseeker) Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ChIPseeker’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): there is no package called ‘gridGraphics’

library(clusterProfiler) Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘clusterProfiler’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): there is no package called ‘gridGraphics’

I've got R version 3.5.2 but it seems gridGraphics is not available for R versions < 3.6 . I checked its manual and it had an update on the 6th of May (06-05-2019). Could it be that this update now made an incompatibility with ChIPseeker? I want to report this because it might change the dependency of the latest ChIPseeker version. Thank you for your time.

it is indeed available for R 3.6, see https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/gridGraphics/index.html.

You need to install this package.
