This is leading to problems with people upgrading to clients that
support MSC1730 because people have this misconfigured, so try
to make the docs completely unambiguous.
The problem here is that we have cut-and-pasted an impl from Twisted, and then
failed to maintain it. It was fixed in Twisted in
https://github.com/twisted/twisted/pull/1047/files; let's do the same here.
Currently they're stored as non-outliers even though the server isn't in
the room, which can be problematic in places where the code assumes it
has the state for all non outlier events.
In particular, there is an edge case where persisting the leave event
triggers a state resolution, which requires looking up the room version
from state. Since the server doesn't have the state, this causes an
exception to be thrown.
In the debian package, make the virtualenv symlink python to /usr/bin/python3.X
rather than /usr/bin/python3. Also make sure we depend on the right python3.x
package.
This might help a bit with subtle failures when people install a package from
the wrong distro (https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4431).
Currently we only have the one event format version defined, but this
adds the necessary infrastructure to persist and fetch the format
versions alongside the events.
We specify the format version rather than the room version as:
1. We don't necessarily know the room version, existing events may be
either v1 or v2.
2. We'd need to be careful to prevent/handle correctly if different
events in the same room reported to be of different versions, which
sounds annoying.
This allows the OpenID userinfo endpoint to be active even if the
federation resource is not active. The OpenID userinfo endpoint
is called by integration managers to verify user actions using the
client API OpenID access token. Without this verification, the
integration manager cannot know that the access token is valid.
The OpenID userinfo endpoint will be loaded in the case that either
"federation" or "openid" resource is defined. The new "openid"
resource is defaulted to active in default configuration.
