            Bug ID: 259330
           Summary: textproc/opensearch-dashboards: the port is broken,
                    does not work with node14
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest

            Status: New

this bug is a placeholder for those who wrongly think
textproc/opensearch-dashboards is usable.

the port is broken in that:

1. the upstream does not support node14
2. the upstream will not support node14
(https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch-Dashboards/issues/835)
3. the port sweeps its own bugs under the rug by using "node --no-warnings"

in bug 257558, it was reported that "opensearch" was working "for about 3 weeks
without any issues", but nothing was mentioned about opensearch-dashboards.

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=257558

for starters, opensearch-dashboards does not log anything because of
incompatibility with node14. i have not investigated what _possibly_ works, and
what not, however, it is apparent from the upgrade plan in the GitHub Issue
that the number of incompatibilities is huge. it is not conceivable that the
port would work.
