TS2411: Property '[Symbol.unscopables]' of type is not assignable

[DaanV2]

• Node Version:: 16.13.2
• comment-json Version: 4.2.2

When upgrading to package 4.2.2 from 4.1.1
I'm getting the following errors during compile time:
I tried commenting out any references to the module but it keeps appearing.

node_modules/typescript/lib/lib.es2015.iterable.d.ts:60:5 - error TS2411: Property '[Symbol.iterator]' of type '() => IterableIterator<TValue>' is not assignable to 'symbol' index type 'CommentToken'.
       [Symbol.iterator](): IterableIterator<T>;

node_modules/typescript/lib/lib.es2015.symbol.wellknown.d.ts:99:5 - error TS2411: Property '[Symbol.unscopables]' of type '() => { copyWithin: boolean; entries: boolean; fill: boolean; find: boolean; findIndex: boolean; keys: boolean; values: boolean; }' is not assignable to 'symbol' index type 'CommentToken'.
       [Symbol.unscopables](): {
       copyWithin: boolean;
...
       values: boolean;
       };

Edit:
I just noticed this error confusingly only occurs if you're compiling .ts-code using the --build command line switch, so opening an issue @ TypeScript might be a good idea.
Edit 2: Did so: microsoft/TypeScript#49739

As far as I can tell, this version of comment-json is not usable in TypeScript as described by you.

I'll go write a PR fixing this issue, however there is a workaround you might want to use until my PR is merged:

1. Install working comment-json type declarations by adding this to the devDependencies:

   "@types/comment-json": "npm:comment-json@4.1.1"
   

2. Tweak your tsconfig.json for making TypeScript load the working types by adding this to the compilerOptions:

   "paths": {
     "comment-json": [
       "./node_modules/@types/comment-json"
     ]
   }
   

This will make typescript load the type declarations from comment-json@4.1.1 instead of the version currently installed.

Actually, you could use any package name other than @types/comment-json as an alias for comment-json@4.1.1 but I think @types/comment-json speaks for itself better than anything else could do.
