Jim,
I have installed the custom CDF package and still not able
to finish creating the probe package.  This is my error:
Importing the data.
Error in rep(NA, max(pm1, mm1, pm2, mm2)) : invalid 'times' argument 
Can you give me a hint to figure out the problem?  

> filename <- system.file("extdata",
"GLYCOv3_Hs_probeseqs.gz",package="matchprobes")
> outdir <- tempdir()
> me <- "Lana Schaffer <schaffer at scripps.edu>"
> species <- "homo_sapiens"
> makeProbePackage("glycov3Hs", datafile=gzfile(filename, open="r"), 
+ outdir=outdir,maintainer=me,species=species, version =
"0.0.1",force=TRUE)
Importing the data.

You get the probe_tab file from Affymetrix and then use
makeProbePackage() in the matchprobes package.

Best,

Jim
