Comment (by Klaas van Schelven):
I just ran into this [https://github.com/bugsink/bugsink/issues/226 here].
Caused by not carefully reading the release notes, but quite hard to
debug.
Having actually read those notes now, I'm left to wonder:
1. what will happen with existing databases that are from a post-5.0
world? They will have been created with uuid columns. Will the suggested
migration path accidentally brake _those_?
2. the suggested path is "varchars everywhere". But my project is deployed
on many DB backends, also postgres. So the suggested solution is a
downgrade for those and or create the risk of breakage on those...
I realise these questions may be "more on me than on Django" but OTOH the
present issue seems like exactly the spot where people with such problems
would gather.
