As of about a week ago the help.search function dies when used in the simple
help.search("something") usage.
The error is
Error in rbind(...) : number of columns of matrices must match (see arg 203)
After some effort I have traced it down to the annotation packages. I
installed
GO, KEGG, mgu74[abc]v2 and hgu133plus2 all version 1.7.0
We (the Bioconductor team) will look into this and see if we can
reproduce what you are reporting. This is the first we've heard of
difficulties with the help system caused by the annotation data
packages.
