-# first of all, we create a base image with a postgres server and database,
-# which we can copy into the target image. For repeated rebuilds, this is
-# much faster than apt installing postgres each time.
-#
-# This trick only works because (a) the Synapse image happens to have all the
-# shared libraries that postgres wants, (b) we use a postgres image based on
-# the same debian version as Synapse's docker image (so the versions of the
-# shared libraries match).

-# now build the final image, based on the Synapse image.
