images and stylesheets not found
Django 1.4.5
Postgres 9.2
Apache/mod_wsgi

DEBUG = True
When I test things with runserver, everything looks great. However, using the base example from the docs to try and get apache to serve the site, none of the images or stylesheets are found. The page otherwise loads fine.
The following is shown in the logs:

I saw the similar Question 8453 which has an answer for adding an additional 2 lines to alias the /m/ urls, so I tried that (pointing to my virtualenv and repo fork respectively) and it didn't work because /askbot/skins/ has no static media in it.
$ ls /home/user/askbot-devel/askbot/skins/
__init__.py __init__.pyc loaders.py loaders.pyc README utils.py utils.pyc
I finally hardcoded default in the alias and edited those two apache conf lines to read:
Alias /m/admin/ /home/user/.virtualenvs/askbot/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/
Alias /m/default/ /home/user/downloads/askbot-devel/askbot/
That doesn't feel right to me hardcoding the default in there even though everything now works. What is that alias supposed to be pointing to exactly?
