Typescript compile fails with errors in cid.d.ts

This package got included in my project via atproto.

When trying to compile typescript (npx tsc) using

    "target": "esnext",
    "module": "esnext",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "skipLibCheck": false

It fails with two errors

node_modules/multiformats/types/src/cid.d.ts:160:85 - error TS2344: Type 'Prefix' does not satisfy the constraint 'string'.

160 export type MultibaseEncoder<Prefix> = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseEncoder<Prefix>;
                                                                                        ~~~~~~

  node_modules/multiformats/types/src/cid.d.ts:160:30
    160 export type MultibaseEncoder<Prefix> = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseEncoder<Prefix>;
                                     ~~~~~~
    This type parameter might need an `extends string` constraint.

node_modules/multiformats/types/src/cid.d.ts:161:85 - error TS2344: Type 'Prefix' does not satisfy the constraint 'string'.

161 export type MultibaseDecoder<Prefix> = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseDecoder<Prefix>;
                                                                                        ~~~~~~

  node_modules/multiformats/types/src/cid.d.ts:161:30
    161 export type MultibaseDecoder<Prefix> = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseDecoder<Prefix>;
                                     ~~~~~~
    This type parameter might need an `extends string` constraint.

replacing

export type MultibaseEncoder<Prefix > = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseEncoder<Prefix>;
export type MultibaseDecoder<Prefix> = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseDecoder<Prefix>;

with

export type MultibaseEncoder<Prefix extends string> = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseEncoder<Prefix>;
export type MultibaseDecoder<Prefix extends string> = import('./bases/interface').MultibaseDecoder<Prefix>;

removes the error. but I have no idea what it means ... or where this is generated :-)

Start with node_modules/multiformats/types/src/cid.d.ts and the referenced ./bases/interface declaration to trace where the failing type aliases are generated. Reproduce the issue with npx tsc using the configuration in the report, then verify that the package's generated declarations compile without the two TS2344 errors.
