Pull Request Checklist

  • Pull request is based on the develop branch
  • Pull request includes a changelog file. The entry should:
    • Be a short description of your change which makes sense to users. "Fixed a bug that prevented receiving messages from other servers." instead of "Moved X method from EventStore to EventWorkerStore.".
    • Use markdown where necessary, mostly for code blocks.
    • End with either a period (.) or an exclamation mark (!).
    • Start with a capital letter.
    • Feel free to credit yourself, by adding a sentence "Contributed by @github_username." or "Contributed by [Your Name]." to the end of the entry.
  • Code style is correct (run the linters)

It goes without saying, but this section may need updating to specify the actual version this PR lands in.

Do this to prevent the trial-olddeps test workflow from installing a
version of jaeger-client that pulls in an old version of a dependency
(tornado) that is incompatible with Python 3.10.

Not necessarily something for this PR specifically but should this include forky (14) ?

I suppose that could be done when Synapse is verified to work on forky. I'm unaware of when/if that was done.
