Description

Hello, I am making an extension, if I run it, the extension doesn't even get loaded. It doesn't say that the extension is even activated, in the debug console. I have the default code generated by making a new typescript extension, I am using Arch Linux which was updated a few days ago.

Research direction

Start with the default TypeScript extension generated by the project and inspect its activation in the VS Code debug console. Reproduce the problem on the reported Arch Linux setup; done means the extension loads and reports activation in the debug console.
