Description

The following bug was reported by Brett Barwick, on May 16, 2013.

R = ZZ[x,y]
f = matrix{{x^3,3_y+1,y^3+2_x*y^2}}
P = minimalPresentation ker f
res P

This worked on earlier versions of M2, but not 1.6 (the module P is way more complicated than it should be, and so the resolution is much more complicated). A workaround is to replace "ker f" with "trim ker f", resulting in a much simpler presentation. But this should not be necessary.
