Hi all,

The LAVA docs mention that it's possible to enable template caching via settings.conf [1]. However, doing so leads to a key error when starting the LAVA gunicorn server and in `lava-server manage check --deploy`:
...
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/lava_server/settings/distro.py", line 185, in <module>
    ("django.template.loaders.cached.Loader", TEMPLATES[0]["OPTIONS"]["loaders"])
KeyError: 'loaders'

The LAVA git history shows that this dictionary key was removed in commit 6705ec870[2], "Refresh the setting files".

Is this just a bug in LAVA, is Django template caching not supported anymore with LAVA, or are other Debian/pip packages required to be installed to enable to cache?

I'm currently testing that on Debian buster, which ships Django version 1.11.

Cheers,
Karsten
