The reported problem is not a bug, but a weakness of Maximas assume
database. The assume database often does not handle assumptions as
general as expected. In general, it might be better to discuss such
problems with the developpers of Maxima on
http://www.math.utexas.edu/pipermail/maxima/

Another possibilty is to report bugs or feature requests on
sourceforge.net. The developers of Maxima might solve the problem.
Maxima is under continous development. The actual version is Maxima
5.24. The Maxima command bug_report() gives a link to the bug database
of the project, e.g.

(%i1) bug_report();

The Maxima bug database is available at
    http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=104933&group_id=4933&func=browse
Submit bug reports by following the 'Add new' link on that page.
Please include the following information with your bug report:
-------------------------------------------------------------

Maxima version: 5.24post
Maxima build date: 23:13 6/15/2011
Host type: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Lisp implementation type: SBCL
Lisp implementation version: 1.0.45

-------------------------------------------------------------
The above information is also reported by the function 'build_info'.

I would like to suggest to close this bug on the Ubuntu Launchpad,
because it is not really a bug and the problem is not related to the
packaging of Maxima for Ubuntu.
