gap> f := FreeGroup(2);;
gap> x := GroupHomomorphismByImages(f,f,[f.1,f.2],[f.2,f.1]);;
gap> Order(x); # expects 2
Error, no method found! For debugging hints type ?Recovery from NoMethodFound
Error, no 3rd choice method found for `CompositionSeries' on 1 arguments at /usr/local/src/gap/lib/methsel2.g:250 called from

the code in lib/morpheus.gi assumes that the source of the automorphism is a finite group. Presumably the method should give up when its source doesn't have the filter IsFinite.

In my example,

gap> ApplicableMethod(Order,[x],0,2)(x);
2
