Comment:
Additionally, the fact that swappable models (e.g. custom user) cause
circular dependencies is also documented:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/customizing/#substituting-a
-custom-user-model
This is unavoidable, I'm afraid; you just have to manually fix the problem
(it's the price you pay for swappable user functionality - uncertainty on
the part of the dependency calculator). Closing as INVALID for that reason
- I wish we could fix this, but I actually think it's technically
impossible in the general case.
