partition distinct parts max part error

[sagetrac-ahmorales]

In the documentation for Partitions:

http://www.sagemath.org/doc/reference/sage/combinat/partition.html

it says that the parameter max_slope=-1 yields partitions into distinct parts", and the parameter max_part=k specifies that all parts of the partitions are at most k. However when you specify both parameters together max_slope=-1, max_part=k it does not yield partitions into distinct parts and parts at most k.

Example:

Partitions(4,max_slope=-1,max_part=2).list()

returns

[[2,2]]

but according to the documentation the answer should be

[[]]

This is essentially #12278. I've copied this example over there.

I agree that this is a duplicate, so it should be removed.
