Does sendfile need to be added to INSTALLED_APPS?

[alexandresebrao]

I was having someproblems when setting the backend, because I thought it should be like that:
SENDFILE_BACKEND = sendfile.backends.development

so I did like this.
SENDFILE_BACKEND = 'sendfile.backends.development'

But is not clear if I should put sendfile on installed_apps.

As far as I know, there's no reason to put sendfile in INSTALLED_APPS. I'm not actually sure what would happen if you did, but I'd assume the answer to be "nothing".

Finally got around to testing this - it appears to make no difference if sendfile is added to INSTALL_APPS or not.
