If you look at this FTP directory in a capabable browser (such as Emacs), you see Dec 22 2014 3.2 Jun 16 2016 3.3 Jul 6 2016 3.4 -> 3.3 May 8 2017 3.5 -> 3.3 So it seems the CRAN team (or the R Core release master?) forgot to make that symbolic link there. As workaround get the 3.5 version and "call it" 3.6.
