[BioC] Problem with some exonmap X.to.Y functions

Hi Sophie,
Transcript, transcript_attrib, and transcript_stable_id should all have (a lot) of data in them. Looking at your row counts, you seem to be missing various bits of Ensembl - as you suggest, it looks like something seems to have gone wrong in the Ensembl install. 

Can I suggest that the first thing to try is a clean re-install of Ensembl and then X:MAP. 
cheers,

Crispin
