In order to make it "work", I imported the models from foo_lib.django
app.models into foo_lib.models. Django was then able to find the
models, and create the migration files.
They are all in the wrong place however, that part of the library
should have nothing to do with django and so this obviously isn't
correct.
I didn't mention it in the first post, this is for
py{27,34,35,36}-dj{108,109,110,111,200}, and developing against
py36-dj200
Cheers
