I just tried installing org.Mm.eg.db_2.5.0 under R-devel with
biocLite() and it worked fine, and library(org.Mm.eg.db_2.5.0)
produced no errors either.

I suggest you try biocLite(). If that doesn't work, try R CMD INSTALL
instead of R CMD install (R is picky about case here) and if that
doesn't work, send your sessionInfo().
