Cannot use import statement outside a module

[Lianecx]

The vue package seems to be using esm imports/exports without having "type": "module" specified in their package.json

Note: I am receiving this error when compiling my vuepress v2 project with vite (not when running the dev server though 🤔)
Editing the package.json inside the node_modules to include the above field, resolves the error.

Any solutions?
