the django-storages docs recommend using boto3 for managing static file storage with S3. expected this config to work but it's err'ing out
requirements.txt
boto3==1.4.6
botocore==1.6.3
django-storages==1.1.4

running python 3. my initial hypothesis is it's a dependency version conflict, but I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling boto3 and storages to no effect. appreciate any guidance or suggestions, otherwise I may uninstall boto3 and revert back to boto.
