Comment:
I've created a patch here:
https://github.com/djw/django/tree/ticket_18455
All the tests in 'forms' pass with this patch applied. However, they fail
when running as part of the full test suite, and I need some advice on how
to fix this.
The issue is that the tests in forms/tests/media.py run with overridden
STATIC_URL and MEDIA_URL. When run in isolation, the static files storage
backend is initialised based on these settings. However if the backend has
been initialised before these tests run, it doesn't respect the new values
of STATIC_URL and MEDIA_URL, so the tests fail. What's the best way to go
about fixing this?
Also the `absolute_path()` method has an optional `prefix` argument — I
can't see where that's used, so I dont know how to support it properly.
