Installation Issue with R 3.6.3

Hi Yihui,
I re-installed R and R studio this morning and tried to re-install all the packages as well. But when I try to install the xfun package, Rstuio return this error message below. I'm wondering if you can guide me to fix this issue?
Error message:
install.packages("xfun")

There is a binary version available but the source version is later:

You can either wait for one day or two until the latest Windows binary package of xfun becomes available on CRAN, or continue to use the older version of xfun (install.packages('xfun', type = 'binary')). Unless you really need the new functions in the latest version, you don't have to install the latest version right now.
You are welcome!
