I do not comment on your proposed fix, but I do question the value of
including this package in buster at all. If it is broken with Django
>=1.10, doesn't that mean the bug affects stable too and nobody has
noticed all this time?
Besides that it has had just one other upload since it was first in the
archive, which was also an NMU. What are the plans for its long-term
maintenance if it is indeed included in buster?
