I was trying to do the example in Adjoining a root of the cubic 
<https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/thematic_tutorials/explicit_methods_in_number_theory/nf_introduction.html#adjoining-a-root-of-the-cubic>
 
in Three Lectures about Explicit Methods in Number Theory Using Sage. 
Specifically, I created a field like this:

sage: K.<b> = QQ[a]
> sage: K
> Number Field in a with defining
> polynomial x^6 + 10*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 25
> sage: a.minpoly()
> x^6 + 10*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 25
> sage: b.minpoly()
> x^6 + 10*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 25
>

and then tried to compute the order of the Galois group:

> K.galois_group().order()
>

This returned a TypeError so I tried to just compute the Galois group: 
K.galois_group(), and even this returns:

On the other hand, K.galois_group(type='gap').order() and 
K.galois_group(type='pari').order() work perfectly. 

I am not sure what the error is. It seems to have something to do with the 
new galois_group_v2. 

Thanks in advance.
