    initial v1  
    11Well, I've digged into this myself now, and I must say: This is completely nonsensical:
    22
    3 When using the AbstractUser class to create a custom user model *exactly as outlined in Django's docs* at least the first "manage.py migrate" must work and must create an empty database table layout. The sole purpose of the AbstractUser class is to extend the basic user with more fields. But as you describe it, the whole class is just useless and doomed to fail. By teh way: Permissions and auth group tables are automatically created with the AbstractUser model.
