Could you help me understand why it blows up? And how to cope with the problem?

Answer 1

After studying the documentation for Django and the Readme for Django Advance Filters. It looks like there is a typo or deprecated use of "url" in the Readme for Advance Filters
Instead of
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
url(r'^advanced_filters/', include('advanced_filters.urls')),
]
Use:
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
re_path(r'^advanced_filters/', include('advanced_filters.urls')),
]
