Hello Philip,

I tested again and still can't reproduce the issue.  ob-python doesn't change the indentation between individual lines of a code block, so this is strange. Do you have the same issue if you aren't using a session? Are you using tabs or spaces? (I tested with spaces)

Consider the following org-babel block:



#+begin_src python :session bug_report
def foobar():
     for i in range(5):
         pass
     print "hello world"

foobar()
#+end_src



When I run it, this is what I see in the *bug_report* buffer:



def foobar():
...     for i in range(5):
...         pass
...
 >>>     print "hello world"
   File "<stdin>", line 1
     print "hello world"
     ^
IndentationError: unexpected indent

 >>> foobar()
 >>>
 >>> open('/tmp/babel-MOOCF9/python-UW5PEF', 'w').write(str(_))
 >>>
 >>>
 >>> 'org_babel_python_eoe'
 >>> 'org_babel_python_eoe'
 >>>



So, org-babel incorrectly decided that the line with the print is not a
part of the function's definition and sent it to Python shell as a
separate statement. Instead, it should've sent it as a part of foobar's
definition.

This problem persists
- If I use python3 instead of python2
- If I replace
     print "hello world"
   with
     return 42

This problem disappears if I add :results output to the source block.
