Right, so nothing in buster depends on r-bioc-biocinstaller.

Quoting the wiki:

"Clean slate method
...
This should be used for example for any non-leaf packages that are
only ever installed by other packages depending on it. Because in that
case the only thing needed will be for the reverse-dependencies to
start depending on the new package."

So if there's nothing that Depends on r-bioc-biocinstaller, there's
nothing that will act on the Provides.
