Yes, but the NotImplemented exception was raised **in the case where a Groebner
basis could be computed**, and I maintain that it is not the most

Hi all,
While playing with the quotient of a polynomial ring with an ideal, I
encountered several glitches.
*) Trying to compute the inverse of something which is not invertible.
I know it is kind of weird to try this. However, it raises a
NotImplementedError exception, instead of something m
