Description
I have installed django-guardian, but I’m not currently using it, so (of course) I don’t have config settings for it. Normally, I guess it would be imported on demand based on INSTALLED_APPS, but it seems that REST Framework automatically imports it from its compat module.
The workaround is equally obvious and trivial (uninstall the unused and offending package), and no problem in a virtualenv, but I’m not sure how this might affect others (do some people not use virtualenvs? I’m guessing some might).
