34535	"dbshell management command can crash if DATABASES[""name""] is a PosixPath"	Jan Pieter Waagmeester	Jan Pieter Waagmeester	"With a sqlite database configured in `settings.py` like this:


{{{
DATABASES = {
    ""default"": {
        ""ENGINE"": ""django.db.backends.sqlite3"",
        ""NAME"": BASE_DIR / ""db.sqlite3"",
    }
}
}}}


exiting `./manage.py dbshell` using `Control - d` sometimes results in this exception:

coercing each item in `e.cmd` to string should fix this.
