💻 Code

// In the example provided
// https://github.com/Teascade/typescript-error-demonstration

import { extended } from '@privateprefix/lib';

// src/index.ts(4,14): error TS2742: The inferred type of 'a' cannot be named without a reference to '@privateprefix/lib/node_modules/joi'. This is likely not portable. A type annotation is necessary.
export const a = extended.object().keys();

Replacing this with

// Joi is declared, but never used ts(6133)
import { type Joi, extended } from '@privateprefix/lib';

// This works now, though
export const a = extended.object().keys();

🙁 Actual behavior

Produces src/index.ts(4,14): error TS2742: The inferred type of 'a' cannot be named without a reference to '@privateprefix/lib/node_modules/joi'. This is likely not portable. A type annotation is necessary.

🙂 Expected behavior

No error is to be expected
