Dear forum,

the class function manual says: "The power of a class function by an 
element that normalizes the underlying group or by a Galois automorphism 
is the conjugate class function."

Lets see...

G:=Group((1,2),(3,4));
a:=Elements(AutomorphismGroup(G))[2];
Irr(G)[1]^a;
Error, no method found! For debugging hints type ?Recovery from 
NoMethodFound
Error, no 3rd choice method found for `^' on 2 arguments

Is this not the way it was meant to be? It works with the identity 
automorphism.

Best wishes,
Benjamin
