This question is better asked on the Bioconductor list 
(bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch).

Without any code or sessionInfo() output, your guess is as good as mine. 
However, I had no problem producing a package.

Not AFAIK.

Other than the help pages for make.cdf.package and makeProbePackage and 
the vignettes? Perhaps there is something unclear in these documents, in 
which case any feedback is appreciated.

Anyway, I'm sending you the packages in a separate email.
