Public bug reported: Ubuntu backported the CVE-2015-0221 fix, which makes `django.views.static.serve` stream file contents. However, https://github.com/django/django/commit/1e39d0f6280abf34c7719db5e7ed1c333f5e5919 was not backported, and without that fix, the Django GZipMiddleware is unable to handle streaming content, breaking django applications that combine static file serving with the gzip middleware. See upstream bug https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/24158 for more information.
