syncdb raises exception about django-survey HOT 8 OPEN

This is a Django bug caused by a MySQL limitation:
http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2495

Basically, MySQL's complaining because it won't let you index a whole BLOB. The
workaround is to leave the UNIQUE off and add the index later using an ALTER 
table
command. 

This should already be fixed (thank to brosner)

oops, confused this with something else.
This issue has yet to be fixed in django.
I am still not comfortable marking the text field non-unique.

Still a problem with MySQL that should be fixed in the DJango cod, but hasn't 
been. 
Problem has been around since Jun 2008

Comment out the unique_together(...) call, syncdb, then turn it back on.....

Can't find any docs on unique_together, but if you could specify a keylength, 
maybe
this could be fixed here.....

This problem still exists.  I followed the approach from mandric in the original
post--that is, I changed the TextField to a CharField with a max_length of 500.

it is needed to limit UNIQUE keys like that:
    UNIQUE (`survey_id`, `text`(100))

Original produces 
    UNIQUE (`survey_id`, `text`)
and mysql does not allow UNIQUE keys more than 1000 byte.

Modified sql is attached. Or do like that

$ /manage.py sqlall survey > survey.sql

and open and change lines below in survey.sql

    UNIQUE (`survey_id`, `text`)
to
    UNIQUE (`survey_id`, `text`(100))

and

    UNIQUE (`question_id`, `text`)
to
    UNIQUE (`question_id`, `text`(100))

and save survey.sql and execute this file with your mysql client app on your 
database.

Hey ... why I'm still having this problem ?
