uglifyOptions config is not working in webpack 5

Describe the bug In quasar.conf.js file, I use uglifyOptions to drop console log in production, but since I upgraded to webpack 5, it’s no longer working. There’s my config:

build: {
      scopeHoisting: true,
      vueRouterMode: 'history', // available values: 'hash', 'history'
      showProgress: true,
      gzip: false,
      analyze: false,
      // drop console
      uglifyOptions: {
        compress: { pure_funcs: ['console.log'] }
      },
      extendWebpack (cfg) {
        if (cfg.output) {
          cfg.plugins.push(new CopyWebpackPlugin({
            patterns: [{ from: './wTFg6cBrWb.txt', to: cfg.output.path }, { from: './MP_verify_2fJZiZCzjBnVRnZ2.txt', to: cfg.output.path }]
          }))
        }
      },
      chainWebpack (chain) {
        const nodePolyfillWebpackPlugin = require('node-polyfill-webpack-plugin')
        chain.plugin('node-polyfill').use(nodePolyfillWebpackPlugin)
      }
    },

Here is my solution, hoping to help people needed. Adding excludeAliases to tell Ployfill ignore console.

const nodePolyfillWebpackPlugin = require('node-polyfill-webpack-plugin')
chain.plugin('node-polyfill').use(nodePolyfillWebpackPlugin, [{ excludeAliases: ['console'] }])

THANKS for your detailed information, appreciated!!! After hours of debugging, I finally found where the problem is.

My project has the dependency node-polyfill-webpack-plugin for crypto lib. When I run quasar build, it will firstly transcript console to random letter such as

Y.info('drop test')

In that case, Uglify can’t find console key words to drop, as a result issue remains.

So my following question is **How can I set minimizer work before node-polyfill-webpack-plugin **
