bex build broken due to 'Could not resolve "quasar/src/utils/uid"' about quasar

[rstoenescu]

New releases of q/app-vite & q/app-webpack are available which fix this issue.

[IGZmanuelMartinVivaldi]

After downgrading quasar it worked again:
yarn add [email protected]

I downgraded others before and didn´t work but maybe are required too:

yarn add [email protected]  
yarn add @quasar/[email protected]

[evandor]

I can confirm that my projects compile again when downgrading quasar back to 2.15.2

Confirming that the fix is working for me; for completeness here's my quasar info output:

Same here! I started a fresh project in order to port our extension to Manifest V3 and I cannot run the dev/build process for it... tried with the v1 stable and v2 beta. Both of them have the same issue.
In my case it doesn't matter if I remove node_modules or not, it does not work anyhow (probably because I am running from scratch so it always pulls the latest changes).
