[BioC] simpleaffy and yeast2cdf problems

[Dan Swan]

Hi Bioconductorites,

I've seen references to this problem in 2005
(https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioconductor/2005-November/010865.html)
and 2006 (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioconductor/2006-March/012480.html),
the former suggesting it should be fixed, but I'm still having the
same issue.

I just want some quick and dirty QC measures on some chips I am pretty
sure are duff.

following along with the outline in the "QC and Affymetrix data" pdf:

> ampli.data<-read.affy("phenodata")
> ampli.eset<-call.exprs(ampli.data,"mas5")

Error in qc.affy(unnormalised, ...) : I'm sorry, I do not know about

which is the same error that has been reported before.
