PermissionError due to unsynchronized migration files in PyPI release

[954-Ivory]

Environment:

• Python 3.12.8
• Django 5.2.1
• Error occurs in Docker environment
• Works fine in local WSL development environment

When I run the command:

python manage.py makemigrations

Here are my relevant storage settings in settings.py:

STORAGES = {
    "default": {
        "BACKEND": "django.core.files.storage.FileSystemStorage",
    },
    "staticfiles": {
        "BACKEND": "whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage",
    },
    "import_export_celery": {
        "BACKEND": "protected_media.models.ProtectedFileSystemStorage",
    },
}

IMPORT_EXPORT_CELERY_STORAGE_ALIAS = 'import_export_celery'

Note: I am using the ProtectedFileSystemStorage class from django-protected-media as the storage backend for import_export_celery

I get the following output:

Migrations for 'import_export_celery':

Suggestions:

The latest migration file included in the PyPI release of the import_export_celery package appears to be 0010_auto_20231013_0904.py.

However, newer migration files from the source code, such as 0011_alter_exportjob_email_on_completion.py, do not seem to have been synchronized to the PyPI package.

Because of this, when running makemigrations, Django attempts to generate or modify migration files inside the site-packages directory, leading to permission errors—especially noticeable in Docker or other environments with restricted file permissions.

It would be ideal if these migration files were included and kept up-to-date in the PyPI package releases to prevent such issues.
