For Bioconductor, only include the _source_ of your vignette. Include 
the source in the vignettes/ directory.

When your package is configured correctly, R CMD build <YourPackage> 
will build your vignette and create the inst/doc/ tree containing the 
built vignette products. R CMD check <YourPackage>.tar.gz will check the 
built product, and be happy.

There might be complaints if, for instance, your vignette is not 
configured correctly, so R CMD build does not build it.
