[BioC] makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC() fails to download table

[Burak Kutlu]

Hi

For some reason I started getting error for the following call
hg19KnownGene <- makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC(genome = "hg19", tablename =
"knownGene")

The curious thing is that it was working this morning, it does not
seem to be a problem related to the goldenPath.

Thanks in advance
