Comment (by Tim Graham):
This looks like a duplicate of #22423. Have I misunderstood the issue? Did
you see the patch in that ticket? Maybe you can update that patch and fix
the failure. If so, please send the pull request to master. Per our
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/release-process
/#supported-versions supported versions policy]. Django 1.11 only receives
security and data loss fixes at this time.
