hi all,
I try to use ABPkgBuilder (session info below)
with following code (partly from the vignette)

#####
library(AnnBuilder)
read.table(file.path(.path.package("AnnBuilder"), "data", "thgu95a"),
           sep = "\t", header = FALSE, as.is = TRUE)
myBase <- file.path(.path.package("AnnBuilder"), "data", "thgu95a")
myBaseType <- "gb"
myDir <- tempdir()
ABPkgBuilder(baseName = myBase, baseMapType = myBaseType,
 pkgName = "myPkg", pkgPath = myDir,
organism = "Homo sapiens", version = "1.1.0", author = list(authors =
"myname",
maintainer = "myname at myemail.com"), fromWeb = TRUE)
#####

The last command however failed:

Error in parseKEGGGenome(url = kegggenomeUrl) :
        Faild to obtain KEGG organism code

Checking for the url gives

 getOption("AnnBuilderSourceUrls")$KEGGGENOME
[1] "ftp://ftp.genome.ad.jp/pub/kegg/tarfiles/genome"

However, this directory does not exist anymore!
Which should be the correct one? And how do I fix this
within the ABPkgBuilder command?

thanks,
Matthias.

ps: I could save my troubles if there is an annotation package for
the complete set of human entrezids (which includes go + kegg + pfam) -
is there?
