Django 1.11.5 release notes

    Bugfixes

    • Fixed GEOS version parsing if the version has a commit hash at the end (new in GEOS 3.6.2) ().
    • Fixed select widget rendering when option values are tuples (#28502).
    • Django 1.11 inadvertently changed the sequence and trigger naming scheme on Oracle. This causes errors on INSERTs for some tables if 'use_returning_into': False is in the OPTIONS part of DATABASES. The pre-1.11 naming scheme is now restored. Unfortunately, it necessarily requires an update to Oracle tables created with Django 1.11.[1-4]. Use the upgrade script in comment 8 to update sequence and trigger names to use the pre-1.11 naming scheme.
    • Added POST request support to LogoutView, for equivalence with the function-based view (#28513).
    • Fixed a regression where SelectDateWidget localized the years in the select box ().
    • Fixed a regression in 1.11.4 where runserver crashed with non-Unicode system encodings on Python 2 + Windows (#28487).
    • Fixed a regression in Django 1.10 where changes to a weren’t logged in the admin change history () and prevented ManyToManyField initial data in model forms from being affected by subsequent model changes (#28543).
    • Fixed a regression in contrib.auth’s login() and logout() views where they ignored positional arguments ().
