Comment (by Natalia Bidart):
Dear milahu,
As mentioned by two Django maintainers, your use case is not supported by
Django: having 3rd party apps installed as dependencies and then modified
locally producing alterations that require new migrations is an anti-
pattern. You are, of course, free to make the decision of continuing doing
so, but please be mindful that Django will not include fixes for these
cases because it's not an usage pattern that we want to encourage.
If you need to modify a 3rd party app generating the need of new
migrations, the recommended path forward is to either reach out to the 3rd
party app maintainers, or fork the library if you have the permissions to
do so and make a new release of the library including the migration, so
it's installed in your dev environment with a clean and complete state.
If you still have questions, the best place to get more answers to your
issue is using any of the user support channels from
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/faq/help/#how-do-i-do-x-why-
doesn-t-y-work-where-can-i-go-to-get-help this link].
