upgrading from Django 1.6 and south to Django 1.8

I'm upgrading from Django 1.6 and south to Django 1.8. 

Following the instructions at: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/topics/migrations/#upgrading-from-south seems to work initially but then realize that the user model wasn't updated: https://github.com/django/django/tree/1.8/django/contrib/auth/migrations.

I am using a custom user model but it only tacks on a field and some properties. Anyone else come across this?
