Yes, looks like a bug in package fPortfolio.
Please report bugs in conztributed packages to the package maintainer
(look at e.g. library(help=fPortfolio)) rather than to an R list.
Thank you.

Hello,
I hesitate to call this a bug, because I could have forgotten something
important, but the MarkowitzPortfolio example in fPortfolio does not
work for me. Here's my code:
library(fPortfolio)
xmpPortfolio("\nStart: Load monthly data set of returns > ")
data(berndtInvest)
# Exclude Date, Market and Interest Rate columns from data frame,
# then multiply by 100 for percentual returns ...
berndtAssets = berndtInvest[, -c(1, 11, 18)]
rownames(berndtAssets) = berndtInvest[, 1]
head(berndtAssets)
