[horizon] Support for Django 3.x
Hi,
It's been a long time that Django 3.x is around, and therefore, it'd be nice if Horizon had some kind of support for it. Indeed, sooner or later, Django 3.x will be uploaded to Debian unstable. That day, I hope Horizon doesn't just break.
So, what's the status? Is anyone is at least working on it?
Cheers,

Hi Thomas,
Horizon team working on adding django3.x support in horizon. A series of patches to add django3.x support is already up [1] and We recently merged a non-voting job to test django3.x which is failing right now[2]. The main issue we are facing in migration to django3.x is horizon using django-pyscss which isn't compatible with django3.x although we have some workaround to fix it[3] but it is not the right way. So I tried to contact the django-pyscss maintainer, but they didn't respond. Then we plan to use an alternative of django-pyscss i.e. django-sass-processor.
Update on django-sass-processor: Me and radomir from horizon team worked on adding django-sass-processor support in horizon[4]. As far our testing it works fine with horizon but horizon default theme doesn't work with it right now and fails with error[5]. I am working on this issue, any help is really appreciated.

Hi Vishal,
Thanks a lot for giving a status update, I'm very happy to see there's work toward Django 3.x support. Thanks to you and all the team.
FYI, I unfortunately don't have the skills to help. However, I can work for having new dependencies available in Debian, and so also in Ubuntu.
Do you think I should package django-sass-processor right now? Or is it too early to tell it's going to be the adopted solution?

FYI, what I feared happened: Django 3.2.7 was uploaded to Debian Unstable yesterday, rendering Horizon Wallaby and Xena completely broken.
Is there a chance that Django 3.2.x support lands in Xena? Or at least, some chance that I can gather a few patches to fix the situation?
