Bug introduced with #12977 : can't copy fields with metaclass

[Stephane "Twidi" Angel]

I'm using ​django-transmeta to create fields for many langs

Say i have a field "description" and with the metaclass provided by django-transmeta, this field is transformed in description_fr + description_en and so on.

But with commit #12977, it doesn't work anymore, as the work is done by copying field (in the __new__ method of the Transmeta metaclass), and at this stage, fields have not models and then __setstate__ (in db/models/fields/__init__.py) fails (because of self.model)

No idea how to make a clean copy of the field without copy.copy...

This should have been solved in [13005]. Update your copy of trunk and re-open if it's still broken.

[Russell Keith-Magee]

I'm fairly certain this problem *won't* be fixed by #13005. However, I'll keep this closed in favor of the original ticket (#13328), which was the original problem that [12977] was trying to fix.

[Gabriel Hurley]

Ah, my apologies. I missed #13328 being reopened. I thought it had stayed fixed despite the other tickets being opened thereafter. Well, either way, [13013] will hopefully take care of it.
