Missing dependency in 'six'

Hi,
After cloning this repository and doing pip install -e . this happens:
(Using python 3.6.8)

 Using cached https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/a4/db/9e9268337c11128ceabc71124aa960fa330d83fd3e85abfe2cddf1c7996c/lino-welfare-18.4.0.tar.gz
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
      File "/private/var/folders/lc/80799yss6klb3_ft_szyfgyr0000gn/T/pip-install-47n3rduj/lino-welfare/setup.py", line 3, in <module>
        exec (compile(open(fn, "rb").read(), fn, 'exec'))
      File "lino_welfare/setup_info.py", line 28, in <module>
        import six
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'six'

It is probably a missing dependency on six from lino-welfare, but I've not yet got that deep into lino.

Social Authentication and ContentTypes

Hi,

If you follow the doc about socialauth you will end up with a non working setup, at least when enabling google OAuth2

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 28, in <module>
    execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)
  ...
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/social_django/urls.py", line 6, in <module>
    from . import views
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/social_django/views.py", line 10, in <module>
    from .utils import psa
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/social_django/utils.py", line 18, in <module>
    Strategy = module_member(STRATEGY)
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/social_core/utils.py", line 61, in module_member
    module = import_module(mod)
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/social_core/utils.py", line 55, in import_module
    __import__(name)
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/social_django/strategy.py", line 5, in <module>
    from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/contrib/contenttypes/models.py", line 134, in <module>
    class ContentType(models.Model):
  File "lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py", line 95, in __new__
    "INSTALLED_APPS." % (module, name)
RuntimeError: Model class django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType doesn't declare an explicit app_label and isn't in an application in INSTALLED_APPS.

The solution looks obvious: add contenttypes to INSTALLED_APPS. Which you could do in two forms:

• You see the error, you are an experienced Django developer so, after instantiating Site() you add:

INSTALLED_APPS += ('django.contrib.contenttypes',)

And you will be greeted with...

table_factory() failed for <class 'django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType'>.
table_factory() failed for <class 'django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType'>.

Only then will you think "hey, it's not a plugin, but maybe the right place to put it is Site.get_installed_apps, like: yield 'django.contrib.contenttypes'.

Now it works.

So, that page might explain that contenttypes is needed, and how to add it?

Python 3 information is outdated

This page: about python 3 support talks about 2016 goals, and py3 not being supported.

But the linked issue says it's Closed, and it appears python 3 is in fact supported

Document how to file bug reports

Hi,

As far as I've seen only the book repository allows for issues to be created; And the lino-based bug tracker is read only.

The documentation talks about pull requests, but... Where, or How does one file a bug report?

(ie: I have one to file about social-auth which I think belongs to the lino repository)

Extjs6 and OpenUI5 reference

After a discussion with Luc, I understand that the React framework is replacing the old ExtJS 3 UI. However there are still sections in the book discussing OpenUI5 and ExtJS6
which I feel are misleading to new users of the Lino project.

Relevant pages

• https://www.lino-framework.org/dev/oui5.html
• https://www.lino-framework.org/dev/overview.html?#extjs-6-front-end

Therefore should all reference to OpenUI5 and ExtJS6 be removed from the documentation? And should this also apply to the demo project's code?
