current setup doesn't work, new or with Wagtail

[jfmatth]

Hi, very interested in this project, but out of the gate, it didn't work.

Standalone

pip install puput
django-admin startproject mysite .
python manage.py migrate 

this works, however, starting the puput instructions from https://puput.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup.html#standalone-blog-app

Adding this to the end of mysite/settings.py

from puput import PUPUT_APPS

INSTALLED_APPS += PUPUT_APPS

Then trying to run

python manage.py migrate

Yields the error

Looks like the taggit library is back reved and isn't compatible?

[CDWimmer]

Getting the same issue, came to the same conclusion.

The version of taggit required by this package is quite old and not compatible with Django 5.1 due to: "The model’s Meta.index_together option is removed."

This project depends on Taggit 4.0.0, which uses the offending index_together line. However Taggit 6.0.0 now exists!

It looks like Django 4.2 had some ability to smooth this over but it doesn't do anything for me in this instance - actually raises this exact error!

[CDWimmer]

Further info to add:

and then upon forcing pip to install django-taggit>5.0.0 to gave me this error/warning:

So despite setup.py specifying taggit>5.0 it apparently also requires taggit <4.1?? Either I'm drunk, Pip's drunk, or something very funky is happening in these requirements. Things seem to be working OK with taggit 6.1.0 however!

Well, I guess we're drinking the same stuff.

Thanks for the taggit 6.x tip
