(%i13) integrate(x, x, minf, inf);
Principal Value
(%o13) 0
But:
It should be:
inf - inf
But this is not equal to zero but should be considered indefinite.

Maxima printed out "Principal value". 0 is the principal value for that integral, right?

Thanks for this bug report. The underlying problem is that Maxima says inf - inf => 0, so it is a duplicate of [ 1562671 ] Handling of infinities. I've raised the priority of 1562671. Closing this report.
