Groupby filter doesn't work with repeated index (original) (raw)

Example:

In [1]: data = pandas.DataFrame(
    {'pid' : [1,1,1,2,2,3,3,3],
     'tag' : [23,45,62,24,45,34,25,62],
     }, index=[0] * 8)

In [2]: g = data.groupby('tag')

In [3]: g.filter(lambda x: len(x) > 1)
Exception: Reindexing only valid with uniquely valued Index objects

(I had thought there was also a similar behaviour with transform, but that seems ok.)
