Description

Describe the bug

This error message shows up in console when you just navigate to the app. Firefox: 78.12.0esr (64-bit) which is latest ESR build under Debian (already unstable branch, I never do testing). This error message prevents me from accessing my contacts over Nextcloud web interface.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Just navigate to "Contacts" with Firefox ESR 78.
Expected behavior

ESR 78 should be still supported.

Actual behavior

A blank page is returned.

Contact version

4.20

Operating system

Linux Devuan

PHP engine version

PHP 7.4

Web server

Apache (supported)

Database

MariaDB

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Contacts navigation in Firefox ESR 78 on the reported setup and inspect the console SyntaxError. Trace the JavaScript loaded for the Contacts page; done means the page loads and contacts are accessible without the private-fields syntax error.
