Hi,
For a "more general solution" one could think of specifying the version
of critical packages in the 'description' file and having a 'biocLite'
function that installs the specific version from CRAN. See e.g. the
'devtools::install_version' function for installing older packages from
the CRAN archive. This may have drawbacks for binary or compiled
packages though.
Best wishes

However, I don't know if this could be a "general solution for all
users" since when installing a package via
biocLite, the latest version of the cran package is installed
regardless the R/BiocInstaller version you are using. Users
would need to download the versions of the dependencies that they need
and install them manually.
