[BioC] problem with package version of rat2302 1.8.5

[Ting-Yuan Liu (FHCRC)]

Hi Mark,

The function "getPkgVers" will read the version information from a file 
called "liblisting.Rda" in your library paths.  The function 
"sessionInfo" will find out which packages are loaded and then read the 
version information from their DESCRIPTION files directly.  

I think the information in your liblisting.Rda file is not up-to-dated 
(for some reason) so that the results from these two functions are 
different.  

HTH,
Ting-Yuan
