I have the following mdels:


class PolyDevice(Model):
    name = CharField(max_length=64)

class NotPolyInterface(PolymorphicModel):
    name = CharField(max_length=64)
    device = ForeignKey(to=PolyDevice, on_delete=CASCADE)
    ethernety_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)
    modular_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)
    fixed_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)
    wirelessy_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)
    fc_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)

class PolyInterface(PolymorphicModel):
    name = CharField(max_length=64)
    device = ForeignKey(to=PolyDevice, on_delete=CASCADE)

class PolyEthernetInterface(PolyInterface):
    ethernety_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)

class PolyModularInterface(PolyEthernetInterface):
    modular_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)

class PolyFixedInterface(PolyEthernetInterface):
    fixed_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)

class PolyWirelessInterface(PolyInterface):
    wirelessy_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)

class PolyFCInterface(PolyInterface):
    fc_stuff = CharField(max_length=64)

When I initialize a device and then initialize one of each type of interface (Fixed, Modular, Wireless, FC) and then attempt to delete the device, I receive the following error:

>>> PolyDevice.objects.first().delete()
