Exception when trying to navigate Main.PyCall module

I was trying to explore what Python functions are available in the Main.PyCall module, but apparently that isn't possible? Or is this a bug?

This looks like a problem with pyjulia, not PyCall, so you should file an issue there: https://github.com/JuliaPy/pyjulia

Sorry, you're right, reported as JuliaPy/pyjulia#414
