I fixed it by importing the function first, using `library(methods)`.

Did you confirm it doesn't happen master? > Regarding the backports you linked: Why would changes to the python code affect the R package? Doesn't happen on master, and it didn't happen before when we were operating on that codebase, so I can assume it is introduced with the back-porting. As far as Python impacting R... we have some bootstrapping going on... Scala does it... and I think R does too... so it'll use Python to generate some of its functions. You can notice this when you look at the docstrings and see how Python examples are in the docs for Scala or R. Can your R patch be back-ported to v1.6.x?
