Comment:
Actually, this is a crash of the debug view itself.
When Django encounters a `TemplateDoesNotExist` exception, the debug view
attempts to gather information about available template loaders and
templates. It relies on the fact that
`django.template.loaders.template_source_loaders` is already populated (by
`django.template.loaders.find_template`). But in your case, it isn't. So a
new exception is raised, it overrides the initial exception, and —
unfortunately — it makes it difficult to understand what really happens
here.
