Description (last modified by Moriyoshi Koizumi)

While the requirement described in #30393 is to check if the target directory name is suitable for a python package as well, the fix (introduced in 3.0.5) does an extra check that ensures it is not an importable python package.

I doubt the behavior is expected, since we may well do the startapp under a python package that isn't a Django project but an add-on for the applications.

It just turned out that the doubt is not appropriate, because the target directory is supposed to be always created fresh beforehand. Sorry for bugging!
