Well spotted Tiphaine ! I just checked and this has affected my package (GOexpress) as well, as it fetches the external_gene_id to annotate gene features. This prevent the key analysis step from completing on my analysis of *Bos taurus* gene expression as well.
Consequently, I will bug-fix the release version immediately. For the record, I make a few different calls to biomaRt for gene ontology annotations, and I didn't get any error message there. But as you say, there may be other Easter eggs in the various datasets. Thanks very much !
