I can't install any package because of beepr package error

I keep getting this error whenever I open rstudio.
Error in library(beepr) : there is no package called ‘beepr’
Even, when I tried installing the package itself, I get the same error!
Not just this, I was trying to install other packages on R and I couldn't because of the same error!
Edit:
I tried installing beepr package
install.packages("beepr")
and it gave that error

R doesn't work properly with conda installation

I tried installing r with conda and every time I try that it doesn't work.
conda create --name test2 -c conda-forge r-base r-seurat
I assumed that by using conda-forge channel, it will install the most updated version. What happened is that it installs the oldest version of R which is 3.6.1
At the same time, the "Seurat" package requires a newer version of R than 3.6.1
So, I specified a version of R in that code and it didn't work too
conda create --name test2 -c conda-forge r-base=4.1.1
This worked for installing a newer R version but when I try activating R on that environment, it gives me an error
Error in library(beepr) : there is no package called ‘beepr’
So, I opened rstudio from that environment and tried installing (beepr) package and it didn't work! It tries to install other packages as a requirement for it and at the same time gives the same error of not having "beepr" installed.
That's one of the packages it tried to install.
Warning in install.packages : installation of package ‘glue’ had non-zero exit status Error in library(beepr) : there is no package called ‘beepr’ Execution halted
and it does that with the rest of packages required.
That's the error I get from installing beepr

Did anyone face that issue before?

Why plotly fails to install using R-Studio but not in R?

For some reason it can't allocate memory but in R it succeeds?
What is wrong here? Please advise why can't I install it straight forward?
You should try to install the development version of plotly (on GitHub) via devtools:
devtools::install_github("ropensci/plotly")

Edit: I initially thought that this could be a problem related to locale, but as per comments below, I had a look at the Rprofile.site and Renviron.site files. The
Error: object 'en' not found
was caused by "language = en" inserted into the Rprofile.site-file. It should have been in the Renviron.site-file instead. See also this post about locale issues in the console.
Thanks to the comments, it is clear that the

was caused by "language = en" inserted into the Rprofile.site-file instead of in the Renviron.site-file instead. See also this post about locale issues in the console.

install.package() on RStudio on Amazon EC2 doesn't work. Package not available for R version 3.3.3

I've seen this: How should I deal with "package 'xxx' is not available (for R version x.y.z)" warning?
and been through the list. No luck. I've also navigated via SSH to my library to see if there was some LOCK file or corrupt install. There is nothing there.
I literally just installed RStudio on Amazon EC2 and can't install the any new packages.
I've done it this way: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/running-r-on-aws/
I've also used Ubuntu with Louis Anslett's AMI: http://www.louisaslett.com/RStudio_AMI/
I get the same problem in both. I have downloaded them manually and installed the tar.gz files from the temp directory. The CRAN repository seems to be fine because install.packages() downloads the tar.gz to /tmp/Rtmp2Rh9Zr/downloaded_packages/ just fine, but then the actual install process fails.
When I run install.packages("haven") for instance, it says

On my EC2 instance, I ran into the same problems when trying to install packages on RStudio, e.g., car, that involve RAM-intensive compilations. This could be fixed by adding swap space as described here
