Details
The kibana package needs to include a bundled version of
nodejs. Kibana only support the version of nodejs that they
explicitly bundle
https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/.node-version. All of their official packages bundle the exact version
of nodejs that they need
https://www.elastic.co/downloads/kibana
but archlinux doesn't.
Kibana don't even support compatible versions from semantic versioning, they say it must be the exact version. It changes with most releases https://github.com/elastic/kibana/commits/master/.node-version and isn't always the same version as nodejs-lts-fermium. The archlinux package should bundle this exact version, otherwise if it works it's in large part due to luck. Other times it fails to start or gives problems in runtime. |

Are there any concrete changes to NodeJS itself that requires the
use of the bundled version? Do we currently have any actual bugs
due to the unsupported version?
