Comment #5 on issue 4003 by asmeu...@gmail.com: Cannot return general quartic solution
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=4003

You don't have to worry about not breaking things. We have an extensive test suite to guard against that.

It seems that the current code is chosen to work with complex numbers only

As opposed to what? More general algebraic contexts? I think all the solvers code only works with standard characteristic 0 fields.

If that will bring more attention, can I offer a small (like $50) bounty for fixing the issue?

There is https://www.bountysource.com/. But really, this is an extremely simple fix. You just need to copy that extensive formula and return it in the place there it is currently raising PolynomialError('cannot return general quartic solution').
