[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1106428: Additional insights on the failing QUERY method test

[Joachim Schwarm]

Hi,

after a little research, i found the following comment in the test case 
on node-body-parser:

 > // Skipping HTTP QUERY tests on Node 21, it is reported in 
http.METHODS on 21.7.2 but not supported
 > // update this implementation to run on supported versions of 21 once 
they exist
 > // upstream tracking https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/51562
 > // express tracking issue: 
https://github.com/expressjs/express/issues/5615
 > return getMajorVersion(versionString) === '21'

see: 
https://github.com/expressjs/body-parser/blob/1.20.3/test/body-parser.js#L80-L86

and despite being tagged with "dont-land-on-v20.x" in the upstream pr on 
nodejs (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/51719) it did in fact land 
on 20.19.2 (LTS) which is used by trixie (see 
https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/eb25047b1b08180ed68dcefe2299682fbc7966ab 
and https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v20.19.2) on 2025-05-14.

Hope this helps

Best,
Joachim
