[BioC] Cannot load widgetTools package

[Vincent Carey 525-2265]

i see that addVig2Menu is a function in Biobase 1.3.10 --
it may be present in earlier versions, but it seems not to
be present in 1.1.2.

the interdependency control for installations and attachments
is an infrastructure project under way at Bioconductor in
conjunction with R core.  You may be able to get away
with

getBioC("prog", isDevel=TRUE, force=TRUE)

which I believe will get you a new Biobase and should
leave the other packages alone ...  or you could manually
bring in the newer Biobase zip archive

keep us posted.
