Description
papermerge v2.0.1 manual installation fails with version conflict caused by different django version

Expected
papermerge manual installation works, I guess

Actual

git clone https://github.com/ciur/papermerge.git PapermergeDMS
git checkout v2.0.1
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements/base.txt --no-cache-dir
ERROR: Cannot install -r requirements/base.txt (line 2) and django==3.1.8 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
The user requested django==3.1.8
papermerge-core 2.0 depends on django==3.1.7

I also checked the Docker files in v2.0.1 but they install Django 3.1.7 as well so I don't understand why they don't fail.

Info:

OS: Debian stable, kernel 5.10
Database: not relevant
Papermerge Version 2.0.1
python version 3.9.2, pip3 20.3.4

@scheibling commented on GitHub (Dec 23, 2021):

You can work around this by editing requirements/base.txt and changing the Django version to 3.1.7
