vue-router v4 resolved instead of v5 when using @nuxtjs/i18n with Nuxt 4.4

[giticon]

Environment

• Operating System: Windows
• Node Version: 24.4.2
• Nuxt Version: 4.4.2
• @nuxtjs/i18n Version: 10.2.3
• vue-router (expected): 5.0.3
• vue-router (actually resolved): 4.6.4
• Package Manager: npm

Reproduction

1. Create a Nuxt 4.4.x project
2. Install @nuxtjs/i18n
3. Run: npm ls vue-router

Describe the bug

@nuxtjs/i18n pulls in vue-router@4.6.4 via unplugin-vue-router@0.16.2, which overrides the vue-router v5 upgrade introduced in Nuxt 4.4. As a result, vue-router@4.6.4 is resolved at the project level instead of v5.

Output of npm ls vue-router:

+-- @nuxtjs/i18n@10.2.3
|   +-- unplugin-vue-router@0.16.2
|   |   `-- vue-router@4.6.4 deduped
|   `-- vue-router@4.6.4 deduped
+-- nuxt@4.4.2
|   `-- vue-router@5.0.3
`-- vue-router@4.6.4

Temporary workaround: force vue-router to v5 via overrides in package.json:

{
  "overrides": {
    "vue-router": "^5.0.3"
  }
}

Additional context

Nuxt 4.4 dropped the dependency on unplugin-vue-router and upgraded to vue-router v5.
