The <package>matrix-synapse</package>-package has been updated to

Due to <link xlink:href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/releases/tag/v1.10.0rc1">stricter requirements</link>
for database configuration when using <package>postgresql</package>, the automated database setup
of the module has been removed to avoid any further edge-cases.

Cannot deploy matrix-synapse with a configuration for a local postgresql database
and a missing postgresql service. Since 20.03 it's mandatory to manually configure the
database (please read the thread in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/80447 for
further reference).
If you
- try to deploy a fresh synapse, you need to configure the database yourself. An example
for this can be found in <nixpkgs/nixos/tests/matrix-synapse.nix>
- update your existing matrix-synapse instance, you simply need to add `services.postgresql.enable = true`
to your configuration.
For further information about this update, please read the release-notes of 20.03 carefully.
