Deprecation Policy for Platform Dependencies

============================================

Synapse has a number of platform dependencies, including Python and PostgreSQL.

This document outlines the policy towards which versions we support, and when we

A Rust compiler is required to build Synapse from source. For any given release

the minimum required version may be bumped up to a recent Rust version, and so
|

people building from source should ensure they can fetch recent versions of Rust

(e.g. by using [rustup](https://rustup.rs/)).

On a similar note, SQLite does not generally have a concept of "supported

release"; bugfixes are published for the latest minor release only. We chose to

track Debian's oldstable as this is relatively conservative, predictably updated

and is consistent with the `.deb` packages released by Matrix.org.
