There was no default_app_config in __init__.py so the full path of the App had to be used in the INSTALLED_APPS list (versions_lifespans.apps.VersionsLifespansApp). This is fixed now so either should work (versions_lifespans.apps.VersionsLifespansApp or just versions_lifespans).
Also, clone the app repository outside of the Mayan directory as the app is not the top level directory in Django app repositories. <repository name>/<actual app code> Symlink the <actual app code> into Mayan's app directory. Run the migrations.
