Expected behavior:

Code compiles without an error.

Actual behavior:

Code failed to compile.

Found 1 error.

@babel/core doesn't ship with typedefs, so tsc tries to find the typedef in @types. After trying @types/@babel/core, tsc decides to try the mangled scope package name @types/babel__core. However, the second attempt no longer follows the paths defined in tsconfig.json.

#19104, similar, but adding node_modules/@types/* won't work for mangled scope package name case.

Beginne mit test.ts und tsconfig.json und führe dann den gezeigten Befehl tsc -p . mit aktiviertem traceResolution aus, um die Auflösung des Scoped-Pakets zu reproduzieren. Verfolge, wie das paths-Mapping bei der Auflösung von @types/babel__core angewendet wird; fertig ist die Aufgabe, wenn das Deklarationspaket über den konfigurierten Pfad gefunden wird und das Projekt ohne TS7016 kompiliert.
