Providers not being built into nuxt output

Issue

When running a production build of the application where the node_modules have been pruned via npm prune --production, if you don't include ipx in the "dependencies" section of your package.json, the application will fail to load images and if you check the network tab, the following error is listed for the image resources. Even installing ipx as a devDepdendency fails in the final build if node_modules are not present. Im assuming the ipx lib is not being built into the final nuxt output.

[500] [IPX_ERROR] Could not load the "sharp" module using the linuxmusl-x64 runtime
Possible solutions:
- Ensure optional dependencies can be installed:
    npm install --include=optional sharp
    yarn add sharp --ignore-engines
- Ensure your package manager supports multi-platform installation:
    See https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/install#cross-platform
- Add platform-specific dependencies:
    npm install --os=linux --libc=musl --cpu=x64 sharp
- Consult the installation documentation:
    See https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/install

Current Workaround

Installing the ipx library as a dependency and NOT a devDependency seems to remedy the issue.
