No module named 'packaging'

What am I doing wrong?
Django: 3.2.4

Found similar issue: PayneLab/cptac#3
Installing packaging manually fixed it

But do I need it though? Seems like it's required for writing reusable apps
Looks like it should not be a dependency, should it?

Hi @efojs

Yep looks like this is a break in the current build. packaging used to be automatically installed via Django but no longer is a dependency.
I'm fixing now to not require it.

The issue is only in the latest release. If you want to install version 1.0.1 instead while I create the fix you won't have the dependency issue.

Sorry about that

Hi @efojs

Version 1.0.3 has been released. It's also been released to PyPi but can take a while to propagate so pip install might install 1.0.2 for another few minutes.

I decided it keep the packaging dependency so ensure dlevel versions etc were handled properly, I've just made sure it's actually added as a dependency in pyproject.toml.

I'm still not sure why tox didn't catch this mind you, I must of had some old version that met the dependency hanging around.

Again sorry for the issue.
