Comment:
**tl;dr** don't call your app "auth" :)
----
You have `django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware` in
`MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES`.
By default, this will use `django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend` as
an authentication backend
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#authentication-
backends).
This backend imports `django.contrib.auth.models`
(https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/auth/backends.py)
Thus, even if you haven't declared `django.contrib.auth` in
`INSTALLED_APPS`, it gets registered in the application cache, creating a
conflict with your app.
I hope this helps!
