Raising DatabaseError directly made it harder than it should to differentiate between IntegrityError when a forced update resulted in no affected rows. Introducing a specialized exception allows for callers to more easily silence, log, or turn them update failures into user facing exceptions (e.g. 404s). Thanks Mariusz for the review.

Django 6.0 release notes - UNDER DEVELOPMENT
|
|
============================================
|
|
|
|
*Expected December 2025*
|
|
|
|
Welcome to Django 6.0!
|
|
|
|
These release notes cover the :ref:`new features <whats-new-6.0>`, as well as
|
|
some :ref:`backwards incompatible changes <backwards-incompatible-6.0>` you'll
|
|
want to be aware of when upgrading from Django 5.2 or earlier. We've
|
|
:ref:`begun the deprecation process for some features
|
|
<deprecated-features-6.0>`.
|
|
|
|
See the :doc:`/howto/upgrade-version` guide if you're updating an existing
|
|
project.
|
|
|
|
Python compatibility
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Django 6.0 supports Python 3.12 and 3.13. We **highly recommend** and only
|
|
officially support the latest release of each series.
|
|
|
|
The Django 5.2.x series is the last to support Python 3.10 and 3.11.
|
|
|
|
Third-party library support for older version of Django
|
|
=======================================================
|
|
|
|
Following the release of Django 6.0, we suggest that third-party app authors
|
|
drop support for all versions of Django prior to 5.2. At that time, you should
|
|
be able to run your package's tests using ``python -Wd`` so that deprecation
|
|
warnings appear. After making the deprecation warning fixes, your app should be
|
|
compatible with Django 6.0.

Backwards incompatible changes in 6.0
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
Database backend API
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
This section describes changes that may be needed in third-party database
|
|
backends.
|
|
|
|
* ``BaseDatabaseCreation.create_test_db(serialize)`` is deprecated. Use
|
|
``serialize_db_to_string()`` instead.
|
|
|
|
* :class:`~django.db.backends.base.schema.BaseDatabaseSchemaEditor` and
|
|
PostgreSQL backends no longer use ``CASCADE`` when dropping a column.
|
|
|
|
Dropped support for MariaDB 10.5
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Upstream support for MariaDB 10.5 ends in June 2025. Django 6.0 supports
|
|
MariaDB 10.6 and higher.
|
|
|
|
Dropped support for Python < 3.12
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Because Python 3.12 is now the minimum supported version for Django, any
|
|
optional dependencies must also meet that requirement. The following versions
|
|
of each library are the first to add or confirm compatibility with Python 3.12:
|
|
|
|
* ``aiosmtpd`` 1.4.5
|
|
* ``argon2-cffi`` 23.1.0
|
|
* ``bcrypt`` 4.1.1
|
|
* ``geoip2`` 4.8.0
|
|
* ``Pillow`` 10.1.0
|
|
* ``mysqlclient`` 2.2.1
|
|
* ``numpy`` 1.26.0
|
|
* ``PyYAML`` 6.0.2
|
|
* ``psycopg`` 3.1.12
|
|
* ``psycopg2`` 2.9.9
|
|
* ``redis-py`` 5.1.0
|
|
* ``selenium`` 4.23.0
|
|
* ``sqlparse`` 0.5.0
|
|
* ``tblib`` 3.0.0
