Comment (by Rodrigo):
JIC, have you defined the models' admins as stated in
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/db/multi-db/#exposing-
multiple-databases-in-django-s-admin-interface ?
Replying to [comment:2 Simon Charette]:
> The issue seems to be in `ContentType.get_object_for_this_type` which
forces the use of `self._state.db`.

`self._state.db` seems good to me as it stores in which database the
object is located
> I assume your `ContentType` read database is different from your
`SomeModel` read one?
It also seems to me that here is where the problem is, because the admin
does not support mult-db out of the box.
