Error in migration: askbot:0127_save_category_tree_as_json

Doing an initial install from the github devel repo as a new project, I'm trying to run the initial migrations. It gets to 0127 and dies

Database is Postgres 9.2.

$ python manage.py migrate askbot

And here's what I'm getting:

 ...

Please try "python manage.py migrate askbot 0127 --fake" then repeat your command. I will look into this issue tomorrow.

Thanks! That worked and the rest of the migrations completed without complaint.

FYI, this came up on django 1.5.1. I've since rolled back to 1.4.5 and did not encounter this issue.

I had similar problem and fixed it with replacing CATEGORY_TREE with its valuse from settings like: CATEGORY_TREE = '[["dummy",[]]]'
