for a simple graph, trace_faces()  gives the expected answer for the faces of a 
planar graph, as shown below.  

import networkx as nx

lat = nx.Graph()
lat.add_edge(1,2) 
lat.add_edge(2,3)
lat.add_edge(2,5)
lat.add_edge(3,4)
lat.add_edge(3,5)
lat.add_edge(4,5)



nodes_dict = {}
nodes_dict[1]=(0,0)    
nodes_dict[2]=(0,1)  
nodes_dict[3]=(0,2)  
nodes_dict[4]=(0,3)  
nodes_dict[5]=(1,2) 
 
 
S = Graph(lat)
S.show(vertex_size = 600, pos = nodes_dict)
S.is_planar(set_embedding = True)
s_emb = S.get_embedding()
faces = S.trace_faces(s_emb)

print faces:

[[(1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4, 5), (5, 2), (2, 1)], [(5, 4), (4, 3), (3,
5)], [(2, 5), (5, 3), (3, 2)]]

There are three faces:  one between nodes 2,3 and 5, another between nodes 3,4 
and 5,and the outside face of all nodes.  

but when I extend the graph: 

lat = nx.Graph()
lat.add_edge(1,2) 
lat.add_edge(2,3)
lat.add_edge(2,5)
lat.add_edge(3,4)
lat.add_edge(3,5)
lat.add_edge(3,9)
lat.add_edge(4,5)
lat.add_edge(4,6)
lat.add_edge(4,7)
lat.add_edge(4,8)
lat.add_edge(4,9)
lat.add_edge(5,6)
lat.add_edge(6,7)
lat.add_edge(7,8)
lat.add_edge(8,9)

nodes_dict = {}
nodes_dict[1]=(0,0)    
nodes_dict[2]=(0,1)  
nodes_dict[3]=(0,2)  
nodes_dict[4]=(0,3)  
nodes_dict[5]=(1,2) 
nodes_dict[6]=(1,3) 
nodes_dict[7]=(0,4) 
nodes_dict[8]=(-1,4) 
nodes_dict[9]=(-1,3)  
  
 

S = Graph(lat)
S.show(vertex_size = 600, pos = nodes_dict)
S.is_planar(set_embedding = True)
s_emb = S.get_embedding()
faces = S.trace_faces(s_emb)

print faces

[[(6, 4), (4, 7), (7, 6)], [(3, 2), (2, 5), (5, 3)], [(5, 4), (4, 6),
(6, 5)], [(7, 8), (8, 9), (9, 3), (3, 5), (5, 6), (6, 7)], [(1, 2), (2,
3), (3, 4), (4, 5), (5, 2), (2, 1)], [(4, 9), (9, 8), (8, 4)], [(7, 4),
(4, 8), (8, 7)], [(3, 9), (9, 4), (4, 3)]]

the face that should exist between just nodes 3,4 and 5  is not found, it's 
replaced with a face around nodes 1,2,3,4,5.   Any ideas what is wrong, or 
other ways of getting an accurate list of the faces in a planar graph?


I'm using 'Sage Version 5.13, Release Date: 2013-12-15'

I realize that trace_faces has been deprecated to just faces()  per this 
discussion: http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15551

but when I run 
S.faces()

I get the error 
AttributeError: 'Graph' object has no attribute 'faces'
