Cannot find module 'webpack/lib/MultiEntryPlugin' with WebPack 5

[asgerhallas]

Using this plugin with webpack 5 produces below error.

Is this a known error? And in that case, is there a way work through or around it?

Hello, library maintainers! Is this work slated as part of the roadmap for this project, or can we submit a PR to address migrating to Webpack 5? Happy to do so if it will be helpful

[rxaviers]

Hi @j-schuster, I'm happy to review and merge your PR to add webpack 5 support to this plugin. Thanks

[devinm-hrbl]

Hi all, how is this progressing? If it's moving along I'll tell my team to just be patient. If you're stuck, I'll get my project on webpack 4 and see if we can help.
