Duplicate entries in generated manifest file

[saxon1964]

To cut a long story short, here is a part of my manifest.js file:

web_accessible_resources: [ { resources: [ 'assets/*', 'css/*', 'icons/*', 'img/*' ], matches: ["<all_urls>"], use_dynamic_url: false }, ],

...and here is what npm run build generates from it:

"web_accessible_resources": [ { "matches": [ "<all_urls>" ], "resources": [ "assets/*", "css/*", "icons/*", "img/*" ], "use_dynamic_url": false }, { "matches": [ "http://localhost:5173/*", "https://movies.luka.in.rs/*", "https://rmz.cr/*", "https://www.imdb.com/*", "https://www.imdb.com/*", "https://www.luka.in.rs/*" ], "resources": [ "assets/chunk-CW84PFo6.js", "assets/chunk-CLZG3LjF.js", "assets/chunk-C0qwE84I.js", "assets/chunk-C7XPqjKU.js" ], "use_dynamic_url": true } ],

So, my settings are preserved. But this extension adds its own part that basically duplicates (overwrites?) my simple settings. "Use dynamic url" is also changed from flase to true.

It's ok to generate a section of manifest if I don't supply my own section, but it's not OK just to ignore my settings if these are provided.

@saxon1964 could you provide a repro for this?
Would it work if i would take this repo and change the manifest into yours?

In your example you provided use_dynamic_url:false yet you later say

"Use dynamic url" is also changed from flase to true

this manifest with crxjs

const manifest = defineManifest({
  manifest_version: 3,
  name: "some name",
  version: "1.0.0",
  content_scripts: [
    {
      js: ["./src/content.tsx"],
      matches: ["<all_urls>"],
    },
  ],
  action: {
    default_popup: "index.html",
  },
  web_accessible_resources: [
    {
      resources: ["assets/*", "css/*", "icons/*", "img/*"],
      matches: ["<all_urls>"],
      use_dynamic_url: false,
    },
  ],
});

is giving me following output in dist/manifest.json

{
  "manifest_version": 3,
  "name": "some name",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "content_scripts": [
    {
      "js": [
        "./src/content.tsx-loader.js"
      ],
      "matches": [
        "<all_urls>"
      ]
    }
  ],
  "action": {
    "default_popup": "index.html"
  },
  "web_accessible_resources": [
    {
      "resources": [
        "assets/*",
        "css/*",
        "icons/*",
        "img/*"
      ],
      "matches": [
        "<all_urls>"
      ],
      "use_dynamic_url": false
    },
    {
      "use_dynamic_url": true,
      "matches": [
        "<all_urls>"
      ],
      "resources": [
        "**/*",
        "*"
      ]
    }
  ],
