AttributeError on syncdb

[Nikolay Zakharov]

When one have stale content types and trying to do syncdb, following error occurs:

Syncing...
Creating tables ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./manage.py", line 9, in <module>
    execute_manager(settings)
... traceback
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/django/contrib/contenttypes/management.py", line 47, in update_contenttypes
    content_type_display = '\n'.join(['    %s | %s' % (ct.app_label, ct.model) for ct in content_types])
AttributeError: 'unicode' object has no attribute 'app_label'

This is because of type mismatch in list comprehension: content_types was list of objects, but now it is a dict with app_labels as keys and models as values.

Initial patch against current git head (9323daf2)

[Alex Gaynor]

This was marked as version 1.3, however I suspect that this is a regression on trunk, is that correct?

[Carl Meyer]

It's pretty clear from looking at the relevant code that this is only on trunk, introduced in r16739. Accepting.

desh, if you are actually seeing it on 1.3 please note that.

[Nikolay Zakharov]

That is correct, guys, it is only in the current SVN trunk and regression was introduced by commit at 09-09-2011.
Version was overlooked by me ('1.3' was default value).
Nice, seems that our company packaging bleeding edge trunk.

Fixed #16854 -- corrected an AttributeError coming from the contenttypes post-syncdb hook. Thanks to desh for the report.
