After installing python3-django-netfields importing the module netfields
into a python interpreter fails with the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/db/backends/postgresql/base.py", 
line 21, in <module>
    import psycopg2 as Database
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'psycopg2'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/netfields/__init__.py", line 2, in

  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/netfields/fields.py", line 3, in <module>
    from django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2.base import DatabaseWrapper

The vast majority of import failures is attributed to missing dependencies.
Often times that manifests as an ImportError or ModuleNotFoundError.
Typically, dependencies should be inserted by dh-python via ${python:Depends}
or ${python3:Depends}. Thus a missing dependency can be caused by incomplete
install_requires in setup.py. Sometimes a missing dependency of a dependency
is the cause, in such cases this bug should be reassigned.
