django CMS packaging issue and patch

This patch addresses a packaging error in yesterday's django CMS release.

5 minutes read

Unfortunately yesterday's releases of django CMS (3.2.4,  3.1.6 and 3.0.17) contained a packaging error, and included old South migrations and .pyc files.

Our latest releases (3.2.5, 3.1.7 and 3.0.18) are on PyPI and fix the problems. If you had trouble with one of the releases from yesterday, you should find that upgrading to the latest version is all you need to do.

We apologise for the inconvenience.
