What is the current behavior?

I'm getting the following error when using webpack 5:

./src/icons/download.svg
Error: Cannot find module 'webpack/lib/RuleSet'

What is the expected behavior?

No error.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce, at least part of webpack config with loader configuration and piece of your code.

1. Clone this repo: https://github.com/kamilmielnik/cv
2. Checkout this commit: kamilmielnik/cv@747bd11
3. npm install
4. npm run dev or npm run build

Please tell us about your environment:

• Node.js version: 12.18.0
• webpack version: 5.24.2
• svg-sprite-loader version: 5.2.1
• OS type & version: Ubuntu 20.04

Other information (e.g. detailed explanation, stacktraces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for us to have context, eg. stackoverflow, gitter, etc)

Not sure if it has anything to do with me using Next.js, but things broke when I upgraded it from 10.0.2 to 10.0.7.
Installing webpack explicitly didn't help.
But this workaround fixes it: kamilmielnik/cv@d01d007
