[BioC] problem with GO terms

Hi all,
  I am sorry but I still have not been able to solve my problem. I did a GO analysis using GOstats on another dataset, this time a canine dataset. The top BP category that I get from GOstats again does not exist any more! Please see below. I reinstalled everything, including GOstats, and have the current versions. How is it possible for GOstats to give me these old categories ...

Did you use GOstats with this current version of BioC, or are you using 
data you processed sometime in the past?

As far as I can tell, it is impossible for you to be getting that GO 
term if you are using the current version of these packages. I am 
assuming that your data are from the Illumina Human V4 chip.

This is with the version of the illuminaHumanV4.db package that you are 
using. Since this isn't even in that package, it is not possible for 
GOstats to be reporting it as being significant.

Best,

Jim
