Weird error in master when asked for type(df)

In [9]: type(detectors)
WARNING: Exception in text/html formatter: unbound method _repr_html_() must be called with DataFrame instance as first argument (got nothing instead)

I noticed another oddity: Why does the type-display create an output numbering (=Out[9]) but the display of detectors.info() does not? Something to do with IPython?

Good catch, it's a recent change in IPython, I've opened an issue.
We've already dealt with the implication for pandas specifically in
#5922 for 0.13.1.

Thanks. Sorry that I didn't provide the IPython version, it's indeed quite close to HEAD in master.

Not a problem. They don't include commit information in their version strings anyway.
Remember that starting with 0.13.1 there's pd.show_versions() though, it's right there.
