dummy-module chunk is not deleted

webpack: 4.44.1 svg-spritemap-webpack-plugin: 3.5.7

Config like:

module.exports = {
  mode: 'development',
  output: {
    path: '/shop-static/assets/',
    hashDigestLength: 8,
    filename: './js/[name].js',
    chunkFilename: './js/[name].js'
  },
  plugins: [
    new SVGSpritemapPlugin('./src/svg-icons/*.svg', {
      output: {
        filename: 'spritemap',
        svgo: {
          plugins: [{ removeTitle: true }]
        }
      }
    })
  ]
};

When I added console.log here:

...
// Fetch existing filenames from all instances of this plugin
const filenames = compilation.options.plugins.filter((plugin) => plugin instanceof SVGSpritemapPlugin).map((plugin) => plugin.filename);
compilation.chunks.forEach((chunk) => {
  console.log(chunk.name, outputOptions.chunk.name)
...

I saw:

I confirm dummy-module is no longer remains after the build on my project.
