Commit #7808 introduced contrib.auth dependency on contrib.admin. It appears if you included django.contrib.auth in INSTALLED_APPS and didn't include django.contrib.admin. If you will try to run tests (manage.py test), you will see 2 test errors:
======================================================================
ERROR: Email is sent if a valid email address is provided for password reset

This is because default test templates are in contrib.admin application and the test is in contrib.auth.
If this is expected dependency it should be declared in documentation (http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/authentication/). Or dependency should be removed by using separate URL set and separate templates for that tests.
