[BioC] problems running DEseq2

[Michael Love]

hi Julian,

Here's some information from a previous thread:
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioconductor/2014-July/060369.html

the brief version: not all GTF files contain sufficient/correct
information to create a txdb. the good news is that you can most
likely use the prebuilt txdb for the known genes track referenced in
that thread.
