Hello,

It seems that the api response changed format in the very recent days. Is that so ?  
For instance, now, to access license label, we shall use `repo_info.card_data["license"]`.

May I be informed on how to access arxiv references though ? I can’t find them anywhere anymore.  
Until a couple days ago at least, it was accessible via :

```python
arxiv_tags = [tag for tag in repo_info.tags
                           if tag.startswith('arxiv:')]

```

Thank you

Hi ! Can you try updating `huggingface_hub` ? Some old versions are not robust to recent changes on HF

Hello and thank you for your response.

The version I had been using was 0.26.2 from October.  
I switched to current (0.27.1, from january) as you kindly advised.  
`api.dataset_info` indeed now behaves same as `api.model_info` again.  
Thanks a lot for the invaluable assistance, Quentin.  
So long and Godspeed.
