I am also seeing this problem; there was a change to how string types are handled in h5py 2.1.0 which triggers this bug. It's a serious inconvenience, as people can't do e.g. np.copy(<hdf5 dataset object>) any more. > These downstream issues could be related: > > http://code.google.com/p/h5py/issues/detail?id=217 Yes, this seems to be the cause of issue 217.
