• f861c2b57[email protected]: This means our entire npm dep tree now uses the latest node-gyp, and we've updated and flattened request as well. npm audit on npm itself comes up clean now! (@rvagg)

• 6e9f04b0bnpm/cli#8 Search for authentication token defined by environment variables by preventing the translation layer from env variable to npm option from breaking :_authToken. (@mkhl)

• 84bfd23e7npm/cli#35 Stop filtering out non-IPv4 addresses from local-addrs, making npm actually use IPv6 addresses when it must. (@valentin2105)

• d81146181npm/cli#32 Don't check for updates to npm when we are updating npm itself. (@olore)

• Another reminder that we've moved our issue tracking! You can read more about our move away from GitHub for issue tracking on our blog

I would like to thank @zkat, @rvagg, and others for the dedication behind this nice update. I suspect you already know that we will have to wait a couple weeks for this one to land ref:

• https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/doc/guides/maintaining-npm.md
• OpenSSL Releases 14th August 2018 #22187 (comment)

Yes, I'm aware of the policy, seeing as I was part of the discussion for it. :)

This PR needs a rebase against master to avoid the git failure in the CI.

[BridgeAR]

@joyeecheung would it not be sufficient to rebase on the CI task?

[zkat]

I've rebased it 👍

[zkat]

Moving this to #22591, since 6.4.1 came out in the meantime 😅

Doesn't that mean we have to wait another 2 weeks to get [email protected] integrated?
