| Description | The 'watchdog' library, explicitly noted as a development-only dependency in the requirements.txt comment, is included in the Dockerfile.django-alpine build process. This means it is installed in the production Docker image, potentially increasing the attack surface with unnecessary code, even if no specific CVEs were found for this version. |

Django Debug Toolbar 6.0.0 no longer working, it crashes the docker build when static files are collected.
Let's wait a bit for 6.0.1 or 6.1.0.
