## Change in behaviour for PostgreSQL databases with unsafe locale

Synapse now refuses to start when using PostgreSQL with non-`C` values for `COLLATE` and
`CTYPE` unless the config flag `allow_unsafe_locale`, found in the database section of
the configuration file, is set to `true`. See the [PostgreSQL documentation](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/postgres.html#fixing-incorrect-collate-or-ctype)
for more information and instructions on how to fix a database with incorrect values.

# Upgrading to v1.55.0

## `synctl` script has been moved
