+A `deprecated` attribute wasn't paired with a `stable`/`unstable` attribute with
+`#![feature(staged_api)]` enabled.
+
+Erroneous code example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0549
+#![feature(staged_api)]
+#![stable(since = "1.0.0", feature = "test")]
+
+#[deprecated(
+    since = "1.0.1",
+    note = "explanation for deprecation"
+)] // invalid
+fn _deprecated_fn() {}
+```
+
+To fix this issue, you need to add also an attribute `stable` or `unstable`.
+Example:
+
+```
+#![feature(staged_api)]
+#![stable(since = "1.0.0", feature = "test")]
+
+#[stable(since = "1.0.0", feature = "test")]
+#[deprecated(
+    since = "1.0.1",
+    note = "explanation for deprecation"
+)] // ok!
+fn _deprecated_fn() {}
+```
+
+See the [How Rust is Made and “Nightly Rust”][how-rust-made-nightly] appendix
+of the Book and the [Stability attributes][stability-attributes] section of the
+Rustc Dev Guide for more details.
