Issue with Namespaces in .d.ts File

[WINOFFRG]

Hello!

I am working on a UI Library which uses Shaka Player as its dependency. This requirement is optionally installed by user on a specific version. And in my library I do some checks that if user has asked to use this library then use it.

So! For the types I have types/shaka.d.ts which

declare module 'shaka-player' {
	export = shaka;
}

Creates the namespace for my project and exposes the typings! For import shaka from 'shaka-player';
The types ae exposed from
\node_modules\.pnpm\[email protected]\node_modules\shaka-player\dist\shaka-player.compiled.d.ts

While using tsup src --dts I am getting error

Error: namespace child (hoisting) not supported yet

  1 | declare module 'shaka-player' {
> 2 |   export = shaka;
    |   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  3 | }
  4 |
    at DeclarationScope.convertNamespace (\node_modules\.pnpm\[email protected][email protected]\node_modules\tsup\dist\rollup.js:7021:19)

New to tsup not sure where the issue is! Kindly help

It's an issue with rollup-plugin-dts, and unfortunately it was deemed "wontfix".
