Comment (by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:66 jhpalmieri]:
 > I can run the test suite in the next day or two, once you update the
 spkg. So it's fine with me if you want to update it. If you do, could you
 also post a diff here, so I can see the changes?

 I have updated my spkg (old location) and have attache a diff with respect
 to the version that you have reviewed earlier.

 Here are the changes:

  * The `useSlimgb` resp. `useStd` options had been used only in one
 location: There were several places where the default 'groebner'  method
 of Singular would be used, regardless of the options. That has changed in
 the last revision.
  * The protocol output of some methods (e.g., `dependent_parameters()`)
 are now providing protocol output ''before'' a potentially time-consuming
 Gröbner basis computation is started. Background: When I computed the
 cohomology of `SmallGroup(128,836)` with the previous revision, I thought
 that it hangs in the computation of the Gröbner basis of the relation
 ideal - but in fact the problem was in `dependent_parameters()`, which has
 not been clear from the protocoll output.
  * In Symonds' criterion, parameters in degree one won't contribute to the
 degree in which the criterion detects completeness. Hence, adding all
 degree one generators to a given list of parameters will not change the
 degree bound -- but it may make the computation easier, because killing
 degree one generators greatly reduces the difficulty of Gröbner basis
 computations. Thus my changes in `dependent_parameters`
