# Hubot migration — waiting on

Deferred/blocked items from moving botka (IRC) and hal8000 (XMPP) off the
retired `nodejs-4` onto `nodejs-5`.

## Upstream: @xmpp/stream-management crash

`ackQueue()` dereferences `undefined` when the server acknowledges more stanzas
than are still queued, so hal8000 logs
`TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'stanza')` on every
(re)connect. Caught by the client, harmless.

Fix is upstream: https://github.com/xmppjs/xmpp.js/pull/1119 (guard the empty
queue). `kosmos/hubot-xmpp` logs the error stack trace meanwhile.

## Upstream: xmpp.js CI is red

The prosody e2e step fails to load `/certs/localhost.key` (environmental
regression); `main` fails on every Node version. Unrelated to our changes, but
it blocks PR CI there.

## Upstream: xmpp.js jest testMatch regression

`jest.config.cjs` sets `testMatch: ["**/test/*.js"]`, dropping
`...defaults.testMatch`, so package-root `*.test.js` files are no longer run.
#1119 works around it by moving one file.

## Deferred features

- botka as an XMPP bot
