linsolve



Dear Maxima Forum

In my attempt to debug, clean and hopefully
improve my summation package, I found that 
I am getting a strange error from "linsolve" 
whenever it finds that the system has no solution 
it outputs a warning about the inconsistency (which is okay) 
followed  by the error message
"
Inconsistent equations:  (2)
 -- an error.  Quitting.  To debug this try DEBUGMODE(TRUE);
"
instead of the empty list of solutions as I would expect.

It is possible that older versions of Maxima had
a different behaviour.

Is there a way to solve the problem efficiently?

   Regards
