Force uses of django 1.8 in setup.py

[okhin]

In setup.py, the definition for the django requirement leads setup.py to do this:

Searching for django>=1.8,<1.9
Reading https://pypi.python.org/simple/django/
Best match: Django 1.9rc1

Indeed, 1.9rc1 is prior 1.9, and basically, memopol does not works on django1.9 :)

So, maybe enforcing django==1.8 in the setup.py will help

Actually if you use pip to install it behaves correctly. I don't really know who's correct here. Semver is not very verbose on the subject ; it's clear for me that 1.9-rc1 is prior to 1.9, but if you request <1.9 you should not get 1.9-rc1.
Anyway the docs tell to use pip, that's how you get known behaviour ;)

Perhaps it's a bug in pip ?​

Most likely a bug in setuptools rather, pip behaves as expected.
