Comment (by ryandesign):

 Ports can be engineered to install appropriate older versions on older
 versions of macOS. At present, the jitsi-meet-electron port has not been
 engineered that way. Or additional ports can be created to provide older
 versions. At present, there is only one version, the one in jitsi-meet-
 electron.

 Ports can indicate their range of compatible versions (using the
 `platforms` keyword). At present, the jitsi-meet-electron port does not
 use that keyword.

 While there are many deficiencies in the way the port health indicators
 are currently implemented, in this case the problem appears to be that the
 port ''does build'', hence successful build status displayed on the port
 page.

 All of the references to the new macOS frameworks are coming from Electron
 Framework.framework. It shouldn't have been possible to build that on
 Mojave with references to nonexistent frameworks, therefore I assume the
 build of jitsi-meet-electron did not build Electron Framework but rather
 copied a too-new version of Electron Framework that was downloaded from
 somewhere.
