Re: Admin TypeError - Cannot call delete() after .distinct()

https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/32682 might be the root cause, which was fixed end of April and part of the 3.2.1 release, doesn't seem like its been backported to 3.1

Trying to delete a record in the Admin list view by checking the

Thanks for any hints
