Vue Devtools Loaded Anyway In Production Build

[deepdivedylan]

What happened?

I have a project built in Vue 3 and Vite in library mode. Ever since vee-validate 4.15.0, vite started emitting dist/index-[hash].js in addition to my expected project files. This broke my project's build system upstream because the dist/index-[hash].js is unnecessary and just Vue devtools. I have linked a minimally worked example that demonstrates this bug.

Reproduction steps

1. Clone the minimally worked example.
2. npm install
3. npm run build
4. Observe the presence of the superfluous dist/index-[hash].js from Vue devtools.
5. Downgrade vee-validate to 4.14.7.
6. rm -Rf node_modules package-lock.json
7. npm install
8. npm run build
9. Observe the absence of the superfluous dist/index-[hash].js from Vue devtools.

Version

Vue.js 3.x and vee-validate 4.x
