I've got a project running Django 1.4, Postgres 3, Python 2.7. Our tests get about halfway through, then we get a sudden flood of errors showing that the django_content_type table may be empty:
......................................................EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Once the errors stop, they continue to the end of the test run. Here's the traceback for all of the errors:

IntegrityError: insert or update on table "auth_permission" violates foreign key constraint "content_type_id_refs_id_728de91f"
DETAIL: Key (content_type_id)=(1) is not present in table "django_content_type".
This is pretty bizarre, but it's probably something we're doing. Has anyone ran into something like this before? I can't find anywhere that we're deleting content types (which the error seems to suggest is happening).
