Question: Error with minimize/maximize

Dear all,

I have this polynomial function

G(x, y) := (-0.14*y^3 + 1.20000000000000*y^2 - 1.26000000000000*y + 0.200000000000000)*x^3 + (1.20*y^3 - 10.0800000000000*y^2 + 10.0800000000000*y - 1.20000000000000)*x^2 + (-8.82*y + 10.08*y^2 - 1.26*y^3)*x + 1. - 1.2*y^2 + 0.2*y^3

I don't understand why the command

minimize(G(x,y),x=0..1,y=0..1);

produces the error

Error, (in RootOf/RootOf:-algnum_in_range) invalid input: RootOf/RootOf:-rootof_in_range expects its 1st argument, rt, to be of type ('RootOf')(polynom(rational,_Z),identical(index) = posint), but received RootOf(7*_Z^3-93*_Z^2+327*_Z-187)

Thanks for your advices, Nicola
