## Hello everyone!

## I've been trying to install annaffy for a while and it doesn't work. It's the only one from 'affy' package that doesn't work. It says it is due to an error on installing 'Go.db' and 'KEGG.db'. I've tried to install those packages before and after annaffy, but it keeps on going on error. Thank you. - A.

It's the Á in your name. See here, particularly Martin Maechler's response and Francois Rousseu's solution, which may be useful, although I am not completely clear as to what Francois did to fix the problem

Probably the best idea is to use a different personal library dir that uses only standard ASCII characters.

Here it is completed:
