Description

Problem

The pulpcore app isn't "reusable" because of this. See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/auth/customizing/#reusable-apps-and-auth-user-model

Solution

I'm not sure of all the implications but we could:

(a) stop shipping a custom user model entirely.
(b) move the user bits to their own python package
(c) find an existing Django app that users can install/configure that is effectively solution (b)
