Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of django-mailman3 the autopkgtest of hyperkitty
fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages
of django-mailman3 from unstable. It passes when run with only packages
from testing. In tabular form:

                       pass            fail
django-mailman3        from testing    1.3.7-1
hyperkitty             from testing    1.3.4-4
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of django-mailman3
to testing [1]. Due to the nature of this issue, I filed this bug report
against both packages. Can you please investigate the situation and
reassign the bug to the right package?
