Not sure if there is any official consensus. There are some built-in
tools in Django which are fairly low-level, [0] but there are also a
number of modules that have sprouted up to simplify things further
(i.e. django-bootstrap-pagination, [1] django-endless-pagination [2]).
In case github popularity is a useful judge:

Project                                 Stars     Forks

django-pagination                    412       166
django-bootstrap-pagination       57        26
django-endless-pagination        129        26

django-pagination is packaged for Fedora, OpenSUSE, and (of course)
Ubuntu. While django-endless-pagination seems to only be packaged for
OpenSUSE and django-bootstrap-pagination doesn't seem to be packaged
for any of the "big" distros.

Arch packages the Linaro django-pagination fork as django-pagination-git.
