The value of src property in manifest.json file is incorrect

[thetutlage]

I have created a sample repo here to reproduce the issue I am facing. https://github.com/thetutlage/vite-invalid-manifest-src/tree/main

The README of the repo explains the exact issue and contains the steps to reproduce it locally.

Basically, I have a CSS file at path resources/css/app.css. This CSS file is imported by a JavaScript file. Finally, I create a build using Vite (with manifest) and I expect the CSS file entry to point back to resources/css/app.css, whereas it points to resources/js/app.css.

Just trying to understand why this is happening?
