Dirichlet L series principal characters

Dear developers, I’d like to generate Dirichlet L-functions and used for instance: default(realprecision,30) p = 2; q = 3; L =lfuncreate(Mod(p,q)); print(lfun(L,2)); This method works well for all non-principal characters, however seems to fail for the principal ones with q > 1: default(realprecision,30) p = 1; q = 3; L =lfuncreate(Mod(p,q)); print(lfun(L,2)); 1.64493406684822643647241516665 = (pi^2)/6 which should be: 1.46216361497620127686436903702 = (4*pi^2)/27 It always seems to default to the zeta-function even when the modulus is greater than 1. Maybe I do something wrong here and is the Mod(p,q) not allowed for principal characters. Keen to learn how to obtain the right outcome. Thanks, Rudolph
