In 3.12.0, the new `decap-cms-widget-richtext` widget requires separate install?

[anselmbradford]

Describe the bug
Using Vite 8.0.8, the latest update (3.12.0) causes the following error at build:

Error: [vite]: Rolldown failed to resolve import "decap-cms-widget-richtext" from "/Users/[username]/Projects/[project-name]/node_modules/decap-cms-app/dist/esm/extensions.js".
This is most likely unintended because it can break your application at runtime.
If you do want to externalize this module explicitly add it to
`build.rollupOptions.external`

If the config is left unchanged, or it is added to external, there is a runtime error of:

Failed to resolve module specifier "decap-cms-widget-richtext". Relative references must start with either "/", "./", or "../".

Explicitly adding the dependency decap-cms-widget-richtext alongside decap-cms-app fixes the issue.

To Reproduce

Expected behavior
No additional dependencies should need to be installed versus decap-cms-app@3.11.0

Applicable Versions:

• Decap CMS version: 3.12.0
• Git provider: GitHub
• OS: Mac 15
• Browser version Chrome 147

• Node.JS version: v25.6.1
• yarn version: v4.13.0

CMS configuration

Additional context
Is this the expected behavior, or am I missing something with how package management works?

@anselmbradford I released 3.12.1, does it work now?
