python-mode.el not allowing indentation after if statement

Question

I've searched all about, and all I could find was this similar isssue: improper exiting from indentation in emacs python-mode where someone is unable to exit from the proper indentation.

Whenever I create an if statement, say

if(foo):
    bar()

Python-mode refuses to allow me to indent the bar line, forcing me to leave it as

if(foo):
bar()

Which will throw an indentation error. This happens in all .py files. It works fine while using python.el, but I much prefer the features of python-mode. Has anyone else found a solution / run into this?

My .emacs file is only the lines for loading python-mode.

Otherwise, As I commented before, if the issue still couldn't be resolved I think you'd better download the latest python-mode from ELPA, which should run M-x package-list-packages and then put below statement to your .emacs file.I am using python-mode-6.0.10 and it works well.

(require 'python-mode)
