François ,

When the following

             sage: x = polygen(GF(121, 'a'))
             sage: C = HyperellipticCurve(x^5 + x - 1, x^2 + 2)
             sage: len(C.points())
             122

is entered manually I get the expected result. The last line of the sage
input is where

  sage -t -force_lib
"devel/sage/sage/schemes/hyperelliptic_curves/hyperelliptic_finite_field.py
"

fails. I downgraded to

sage-doc-4.5.2-r1
numpy-1.3.0-r2
scipy-0.7.2-r1
sage-4.5.2-r1

and the test passed. I then upgraded to the latest sage-doc, numpy, scipy
and sage and the test passed, but only the first time. On subsequent tries
the test has failed.

The important bit, I think, is that when you enter the data manually you get
the expected results. There is quite possibly something wrong with the
doctests framework. Some of it may come from the port to Gentoo, but
as I said there are other people in the sage community that wonder about
the same thing.

We probably should enter that as a recorded issue on github, other people
may get it from time to time.

Just an update. The subject test of this thread no longer fails here with sage-4.5.3?
