[Bug 1638957] Re: [MIR] http-parser, dependency of sssd

[Andreas Hasenack]

** Description changed:

  [Availability]
  Package is in universe since trusty:
  
  $ rmadison http-parser
   http-parser | 2.1-2   | trusty/universe | source
   http-parser | 2.1-2   | xenial/universe | source
   http-parser | 2.1-2   | artful/universe | source
   http-parser | 2.7.1-2 | bionic/universe | source
+ 
+ Upstream: https://github.com/nodejs/http-parser
  
  [Rationale]
  sssd uses http-parser in its sssd-secrets service [https://docs.pagure.org/SSSD.sssd/design_pages/secrets_service.html], which has a REST API over a unix socket.
  
  The Debian sssd package has the secrets service enabled, and disabling
  it in the Ubuntu package is part of the delta we carry.
  
  The secrets service can be used as a generic key/value database for
  secrets, and one of its users is a kerberos KDC via KCM (Kerberos Cache
  Manager), implemented by sssd-kcm.
  
  sssd-secrets is unix socket activated and won't be running until there
  is a connection to that socket.
  
  The goal of this MIR is then twofold:
  a) drop a delta we have with regards to debian
  b) provide the sssd-secrets service for Ubuntu users
