Well, with the double dereference printing out the names of the types is
new to me in Perl, but it's been a while.
Perhaps you could try printing the results out with Data::Dumper ?
The minimal python is:
import xmlrpclib
s = xmlrpclib.Server("http://127.0.0.1/cobbler_api";)
print(s.get_profiles())
This gives me an list/array of hashes, each hash/dict describing a
different profile.
