Comment:
This is certainly annoying, but it isn't critical for v1.1 as it doesn't
cause data loss.
The problem is that we are a bit enthusiastic eating ImportErrors during
the loading process. There is a legitimate reason for catching
ImportErrors; they are a byproduct of the the app loading process.
However, errors such as this one should be raised to the user, rather than
being eaten entirely.
Explicit reproduction instructions: Create a new application called
'testapp', and add it to settings.py. Put the following in
testapp/models.py:
{{{
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import NotAModel
class NewModel(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
}}}
manage.py validate doesn't report errors; manage.py syncdb doesn't report
any problems, but doesn't create the testapp_newmodel table, either.
