Empty Superuser Permissions

Reported by: jay.halleaux@… Owned by: anonymous

Description

The following:

user.get_all_permissions()

Returns an empty set for a superuser without any explicitly stated permissions.

Based on the definition on the admin page, a superuser has all permissions, implicitly.

Adding an explicit permission however does show up.

Thanks.

However

user.has_perm('some permission')

works despite the set not populating.
