Installation of the latest "GenomeInfoDb" fails with an error in attempting to extract the zip file. Is this a corrupted file or a problem with my Windows system? All previous installations on this computer proceeded smoothly. All other libraries from the Bioconductor install without a problem. However, without this, the entire Biostrings library is not functional!

Hi David,

I am unable to reproduce this error on Windows. Please try again. It may be intermittent.
