Comment (by James Timmins): Thanks so much for the help Simon! This is a great jumping-off point. There's something that I'm unclear about, which perhaps you can shed some light on. While I was able to replicate the bug with 2.2, when I try to create a test on Master to validate the bug, the group-by behavior seems to have changed. Here's the test that I created: {{{ def test_exact_selected_field_rhs_subquery(self): author_1 = Author.objects.create(name='one') author_2 = Author.objects.create(name='two') max_ids = Author.objects.filter(alias__isnull=True).values('alias').annotate(m=Max('id')).values('m') authors = Author.objects.filter(id=max_ids[:1]) self.assertFalse(str(max_ids.query)) # This was just to force the test-runner to output the query. self.assertEqual(authors[0], author_2) }}} And here's the resulting query: {{{ SELECT MAX("lookup_author"."id") AS "m" FROM "lookup_author" WHERE "lookup_author"."alias" IS NULL GROUP BY "lookup_author"."alias", "lookup_author"."name" }}} It no longer appears to be grouping by the 'alias' field listed in the initial `.values()` preceeding the `.annotate()`. I looked at the docs and release notes to see if there was a behavior change, but didn't see anything listed. Do you know if I'm just misunderstanding what's happening here? Or does this seem like a possible regression? -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/30771#comment:5> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
