Is there a release with this fix?

[Gwerlas]

Not yet.

I don't know who can make a new release.

@xzyfer Is there a release planned with this fix? I'd like to use a release instead of a git commit in my package.json.

As you can see in the link above, there is a similar issue where upgrading request module from 2.87.0 to 2.88.0 also introduces the punycode module v2.1.1 which dropped support for IE11 in v2.0.0.

Can you suggest how we can fix this for [email protected] without upgrading it to a major version.

The version of request that node-sass uses should have no affect on your application if you require a particular version for your app. EX: set your request version in you package.json and NPM will separate out node-sass and your apps version

Thanks @nschonni, your suggestion worked perfectly! I'm certainly impressed by the quick turnaround of the contributors of this project :)
