#29176 closed Bug (fixed)

User.normalize_username() crashes if username isn't a string

Description

I use phone_number module for my username field in Auth module and since I migrated my project to django2, the classmethod normalize_username tries to normalise data which are not a string.

A simple patch would be to check username type in this method and normalize only if the type is a string.
