ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'models'

[The-Judge]

I'm using:

• Django 2.2.2
• Python 3.7.3
• django-background-task 0.1.8

To circumvent #28 , I applied this patch to models.py:

When starting Django, startup now fails with ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'models' instead. The reason seems to be that in Python 3 the import behaviour for local modules has changed (see PEP 0328).

This patch for admin.py fixes the issue while keeping support for Python2 >=2.5:
