[BioC] ChIPpeakAnno

[Brian James Gadd]

I am relatively new to R and am trying to use ChIPpeakAnno.  I am
having some difficulty getting the ChIPpeakAnno library to load
correctly. The annotatePeakInBatch function still runs but fails to
properly annotate genes on the minus strand.

Specifically, upon loading the ChIPpeakAnno library a variety of
objects are masked from several attached packages as detailed in the
printout below.  The sessionInfo() print out is below as well.

Any advice on how to ensure everything loads correctly would be
greatly appreciated; I haven't been able to find anything after
scouring bioconductor, CRAN, or Google and I'm at a loss.  Thanks!

I attempted this after getting R and bioconductor up and running first:
Fresh Install of R 2.14.1 in Windows 7.
Assigned write permission to the library folder to allow package installation.

biocLite()
