Try to fix but without success:

> source <virtuenv_path>/bin/activate
> pip install --upgrade pip
> pip install django-compat

Please make sure to install the latest version of the progressbar33 package instead of the progressbar one. If both are installed in your virtualenv, uninstall progressbar.
