[R-SIG-Finance] Weird problem with latest RQuantLib not working with QuantMod on R 2.13.1

[Jeffrey Ryan]

Hi Chandra,

A bug in getSymbols yahoo.  Patched in rev 568 on R-forge.  exists was
walking up the enclosing frames until it found a bound variable
'adjust' which in this case came from RQuantlib.  I added
inherits=FALSE to patch.

Thanks for the report (as well as thanks to Dirk for a suggested fix).

Best,
Jeff
