[BioC] Problems with the package GEOsubission

Hi Fabian,

My apologies for taking so long to respond. In your test, you might not have
made the right comparison

> sampDat <- read.delim(file.path(dataDir, "dRED.txt"))
> expMatrix <- read.delim(file.path(dataDir, "eRED.txt"))

> colnames(expDat) == sampDat$Sample_supplementary_file

I guess that "colnames(expDat)" should be "colnames(expMatrix)". Are you
still having this problem you described?

Cheers,
Alex
