I ran the following code to factor a polynomial over a number field:
U.<z> = CyclotomicField(32)
P.<x> = PolynomialRing(U)
f = x^16-256
print f.factor()
This code works for all substitutions of 256 by another value I have tried, but this one gives an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "p_is_2_test.sage.py", line 10, in <module>
print f.factor()

cypari2.handle_error.PariError: inconsistent concatenation t_COL (8 elts) , t_VEC (8 elts)
This seems like some bug in sage, but I am not quite sure what to make of the error. Does anyone know how to deal with this error and to properly let sage factor this polynomial?
