Comment (by Jonas L.):
Replying to [comment:1 Mariusz Felisiak]:
> Thanks for the ticket, however Django doesn't support namespace
packages, see [https://groups.google.com/g/django-
developers/c/GVHMH2ciAnk/m/vbIPbZuSBQAJ a discussion on the mailing list].
It's also
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/auth/customizing/#substituting-a
-custom-user-model documented] that `AUTH_USER_MODEL` is ''"dotted pair
describes the name of the Django app ... and the name of the Django model
that you wish to use as your user model"''.
In that case the following documentation is misleading
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/applications/#namespace-package
I understood that if I meet the requirements, using a namespace is
possible. Or maybe I didn't understand it right ?
