To document this behaviour, show a workaround and make sure that using PALP compiled for different dimensions works? It is not OK to just use system PALP compiled for dimension 11 or whatever always, e.g. Hodge number computations will not work in any version but for top dimension 4. Maybe it is not quite clear from doctests, but it is really nice that Sage this ability of quickly choosing which dimension you need, I definitely used it and Volker too, I imagine, since he implemented this in spkg. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
