[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#795492: New upstream series (soname 2.5), please package it

[Luca Bruno]

Source: http-parser
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
since the last upload of http-parser package, upstream had several
intermediate releases and soname bumps.
The current one is 2.5 and it is the current target for the next
nodejs/iojs release cycle.

Can you please update the package to latest version and bump the
soname? Moreover, it looks like many packages are directly
embedding http-parser as it is extremely small; it may be worth
providing a -source binary package for them to use.

If nobody has time for this, just let us know. I'll be happy to
take this over inside the JS packaging team.

Cheers, Luca
