Error in reverse m2m query if the model with ManyToManyField has CharField primary key

Description

Here is my models.py file:

from django.db import models
import uuid

class Group(models.Model):
	Name = models.CharField('Name', max_length=100)

class UserProfile(models.Model):
	id = models.CharField(primary_key=True, max_length=32, default=str(uuid.uuid4()).replace('-', ''))
	Name = models.CharField('Name', max_length=100)
	groups = models.ManyToManyField(Group, null=True, blank=True)

I execute following commands on Django shell (manage.py shell):

>>> g1=Group(Name='g1')
>>> g1.save()
>>> u1=UserProfile(Name='u1')
>>> u1.save()
>>> u1.groups.add(g1)
>>> Groups.objects.filter(userprofile=u1)

The last command (a reverse m2m query) throws following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'Groups' is not defined
>>> Group.objects.filter(userprofile=u1)

This hardly qualifies as a bug : according to https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/auth/customizing/#specifying-a-custom-user-model contrib.auth expects your custom User model to have an integer primary key.

Replying to bruno@…:

You are right to point out that only interger primary key can be used in custom User model. But, this bug is not related to only User model. Let's say the models were, you still get the error:

from django.db import models
import uuid

class Publication(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=30)

class Article(models.Model):
    id = models.CharField(primary_key=True, max_length=32, default=str(uuid.uuid4()).replace('-', ''))
    headline = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    publications = models.ManyToManyField(Publication)

In 8b2c1ac06d3d1cf99661f4af75030abb456e1665:

Added tests for m2m queries with custom pk on the end models

It seems this case was fixed somewhere between 1.5.x and 1.6.x. I added
tests as I wasn't able to find any tests for these cases. Refs #21879

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed
Triage Stage: UnreviewedAccepted

I wasn't able to reproduce this on master or 1.6.x. I added tests for this case as it seems there weren't any before.

If this error is only present only in 1.5.x we aren't going to fix it due to backporting policy. I'll close this as fixed, if there is still a bug in master/1.6.x we need more information to reproduce.
