The bug is: (1) -> radicalSolve([x-y],[x,y])
(1) [[x= x]] Type: List(List(Equation(Expression(Integer)))) (2) -> radicalRoots([x-y],[x,y]) (2) [[x]] Type: List(List(Expression(Integer))) (3) -> solve([x-y],[x,y]) (3) [[x= %A,y= %A]] Type: List(List(Equation(Fraction(Polynomial(Integer))))) Clearly result (1) is wrong, and it's easy to make it return "[[x= y]]", however, that depends on the meaning of 'radicalRoots': radicalRoots : (L RF, L SY) -> L L RE ++ radicalRoots(lrf, lvar) finds the roots expressed in terms of ++ radicals of the list of rational functions lrf ++ with respect to the list of symbols lvar. In the case of "radicalRoots([x-y],[x,y])" returns "[[x]]", when equations of lrf are indeterminate, returns with respect to the *reverse* order of lvar.
