[BioC] older version of org.Hs.eg.db

[Marc Carlson]

Hi 1frcn,

Bioconductor packages are not intended to be cross-compatible with all 
other versions.  So if you really need to use an annotation package from 
2010, then you will need to also be running the older software that it 
was test with/against.  You can do this by simply installing the 
appropriate version of R (in this case it would be R version 2.12 that 
was run with Bioconductor 2.7) an then using biocLite() (as described here):

http://bioconductor.org/install/

Once you have set up the packages using biocLite() in this way, you 
should automatically have the old annotations installed alongside their 
matching old software.
