I upgraded to Django 4.1.11 (coming from 4.1.10), and I got this error:
{{{ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'backports'}}}
This is coming from a Django file:
{{{
File "/Users/user/.local/share/virtualenvs/S4yCzdAj/lib/python3.8/site-
packages/django/utils/timezone.py", line 12, in <module>
from backports import zoneinfo
}}}
It can be fixed by manually installing backports.zoneinfo, but I believe
packages that Django requires should be automatically pulled in. I'm using
pipenv to install.
Versions:
* Python: 3.8.13
* Pipenv: 2023.9.8
* Django: 4.1.11

Comment:
`backports.zoneinfo` is on the list of required packages from Python < 3.9
and Django 4.1. Check out TicketClosingReasons/UseSupportChannels for ways
