[BioC] failure in GDS2eSet() in package GEOquery

Hello,

If I execute the following three lines:

library('GEOquery')
gds <- getGEO('GSE2034')
eset <- GDS2eSet(gds)

I get the following error message after the call to GDS2eSet():

Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable)  :
  unable to find an inherited method for function "Table", for signature "GSE"

I'm using R version 2.6.0 and GEOquery version 2.2.0 (see details below), but it
also happens with R version 2.5.2 and GEOquery version 2.0.6.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

-Ben

Description: The NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) is a public
        repository of microarray data (>150,000 experiments).  Given
        the rich and varied nature of these data, it is only natural to
        want to apply BioConductor tools to these data.  GEOquery is
        the bridge between GEO and BioConductor.
