Hi Konika,
In order to answer your question, I need to know which version of GO.db
you are using. Can you please provide the results from your sessionInfo() ?
GO.db is updated with every release. So the current release was updated
last fall. The version in the development branch (which will become the
release in a couple weeks), was updated last week.
