They had a limited use-case, and do not work like people expect. They required either very old installs ([before mid-2019](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/62462)) or customized builds out of scope of the standard and generic AArch64 support. That option set never supported the Raspberry Pi 4 family of devices. @@ -66,6 +70,13 @@ - The `services.ananicy.extraRules` option now has the type of `listOf attrs` instead of `string`. +- The `matrix-synapse` package & module have undergone some significant internal changes, for most setups no intervention is needed, though: + - The option [`services.matrix-synapse.package`](#opt-services.matrix-synapse.package) is now read-only.

Unfortunately all servers supporting new clients (newer version of anki-sync-server, anki's built in sync server and this new rust package) do not support the older sync protocol that was used in the old server, so such old clients will also need updating and in particular the anki package in nixpkgs is also being updated in this release.
