Support and compatibility with Webpack 4 regarding mini-css-extract-plugin

[bensampaio]

@thasmo thanks for reporting this issue. I would like to help but since I maintain this plugin alone I can't offer support for all versions. Therefore, I chose to offer support only for the current major version. Is there no option for you to upgrade to webpack@5? If not and if you are interested I could also invite you as a collaborator so that you can make the necessary change in a separate release branch.

@bensampaio I was able to test 6.0.2 on a project of ours and so far everything looks good. 👍 Thanks for the time, help and cooperation. 🙇‍♂️

@bensampaio, is this something you'd consider?

@bensampaio I totally understand your point of view. We're in the process of evaluating and upgrading webpack to version 5, but due to various dependent factors we don't be able to upgrade to webpack 5 shortly. If it's okay for you, feel free to create a separate branch and assign the relevant permissions to me, so I'm able to make the neccessary changes. Publishing releases for that branch on npm would probably still be on your side, I guess. Thanks a lot!

@thasmo I invited you as a collaborator and created branch 6.0. You can branch out from that branch and create a PR with the changes for me to review. I will then publish the release.

@bensampaio, thanks! Going to have a look at it soon.
