same for me...

Same here

This appears to be a bug in esbuild which is used within the optimization pipeline. A fix with esbuild will most likely be needed to resolve the issue.

[atsjo]

the newly released esbuild 0.16.17 fixes this. confirmed by overriding esbuild dependency via

  "resolutions": {
    "@angular-devkit/build-angular/esbuild": "^0.16.17"
  }
