# Django 1.6.1 release notes

*December 12, 2013*

This is Django 1.6.1, a bugfix release for Django 1.6. In addition to the bug
fixes listed below, translations submitted since the 1.6 release are also
included.

## Bug fixes

- Fixed `BCryptSHA256PasswordHasher` with py-bcrypt and Python 3 (#21398).
- Fixed a regression that prevented a `ForeignKey` with a hidden reverse
  manager (`related_name` ending with ‘+’) from being used as a lookup for
  `prefetch_related` (#21410).
- Fixed [`Queryset.datetimes`](/en/1.10/ref/models/querysets/#django.db.models.query.QuerySet.datetimes)
  raising `AttributeError` in some situations (#21432).
- Fixed [`ModelBackend`](/en/1.10/ref/contrib/auth/#django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend) raising
  `UnboundLocalError` if [`get_user_model()`](/en/1.10/topics/auth/customizing/#django.contrib.auth.get_user_model)
  raised an error (#21439).
- Fixed a regression that prevented editable `GenericRelation` subclasses
  from working in `ModelForms` (#21428).
- Added missing `to_python` method for `ModelMultipleChoiceField` which
  is required in Django 1.6 to properly detect changes from initial values
  (#21568).
- Fixed `django.contrib.humanize` translations where the unicode sequence
  for the non-breaking space was returned verbatim (#21415).
- Fixed [`loaddata`](/en/1.10/ref/django-admin/#django-admin-loaddata) error when fixture file name contained any dots
  not related to file extensions (#21457) or when fixture path was relative
  but located in a subdirectory (#21551).
- Fixed display of inline instances in formsets when parent has 0 for primary
  key (#21472).
- Fixed a regression where custom querysets for foreign keys were overwritten
  if `ModelAdmin` had ordering set (#21405).
- Removed mention of a feature in the `--locale`/`-l` option of the
  `makemessages` and `compilemessages` commands that never worked as
  promised: Support of multiple locale names separated by commas. It’s still
  possible to specify multiple locales in one run by using the option
  multiple times (#21488, #17181).
- Fixed a regression that unnecessarily triggered settings configuration when
  importing `get_wsgi_application` (#21486).
- Fixed test client `logout()` method when using the cookie-based session
  backend (#21448).
- Fixed a crash when a `GeometryField` uses a non-geometric widget (#21496).
- Fixed password hash upgrade when changing the iteration count (#21535).
- Fixed a bug in the debug view when the URLconf only contains one element
  (#21530).
- Re-added missing search result count and reset link in changelist admin view
  (#21510).
- The current language is no longer saved to the session by `LocaleMiddleware`
  on every response, but rather only after a logout (#21473).
- Fixed a crash when executing `runserver` on non-English systems and when the
  formatted date in its output contained non-ASCII characters (#21358).
- Fixed a crash in the debug view after an exception occurred on Python ≥ 3.3
  (#21443).
- Fixed a crash in [`ImageField`](/en/1.10/ref/models/fields/#django.db.models.ImageField) on some platforms
  (Homebrew and RHEL6 reported) (#21355).
- Fixed a regression when using generic relations in `ModelAdmin.list_filter`
  (#21431).
