[BioC] Aroma breaks when reading >2 Agilent 44k custom arrays

Dear list,

I am trying to read a bunch of Agilent custom 44k arrays that have been 
processed with GenePix (i.e. I have .gpr-files).

I am able to read one or two files, but when trying three (any three) it 
breaks giving the following error message:

 > gpr <- GenePixData$read(targets$Filename[1:3], verbose=TRUE)
...
Error in paste(channels[channels(is.na(pos))], collapse = ", ") :
  could not find function "channels"
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In readHeader.GenePixData(this, filename = filename, path = NULL,  :
  GenePix file format warning: Some of the field names are not 
recognized. It might be because it is a new/old version. The unknown 
fields are: RefNumber, ControlType, GeneName, TopHit, Description.
2: In readHeader.GenePixData(this, filename = filename, path = NULL,  :
  GenePix file format warning: Some of the field names are not 
recognized. It might be because it is a new/old version. The unknown 
fields are: RefNumber, ControlType, GeneName, TopHit, Description.
3: In readHeader.GenePixData(this, filename = filename, path = NULL,  :
  GenePix file format warning: Some of the field names are not 
recognized. It might be because it is a new/old version. The unknown 
fields are: RefNumber, ControlType, GeneName, TopHit, Description.



For convenience, output from the verbose flag is appended to the end of 
this mail. My session info is

Any ideas why?
