Again hi! Yet another problem with number fields: In #8909, I fixed some problems in the transition from Gap elements of a cyclotomic field to sage. For example, the number 2 in a number field in gap can be represented as !2, which Sage did not understand.
While this is fixed for cyclotomic fields (as soon as #8909 is merged), it remains for general number fields. Example: sage: P.<x> = QQ[] sage: L.<tau> = NumberField(x^3 - 2) sage: gap(L) <algebraic extension over the Rationals of degree 3> sage: l = gap(L) sage: l.GeneratorsOfField() [ tau ] sage: gap(tau) tau sage: gap(tau)^3 !2 sage: L(gap(tau)^3) BOOM So, meanwhile we have *two* bugs to fix for the GAP interface of number fields. I guess this is now definitely beyond the scope of #5618 and should give rise to a new ticket.
