Missing module `undici-types`

[tarsobcaldas]

Hello, I'm using ArchLinux and I've been trying to install via both AUR and by trying to compile from the git repository. In both cases, when trying to compile, I get an error calling for a missing module undici-types, which I've tried installing, both locally and globally, resintalling typescript and other things, but haven't had any success.

(1) Issue/Bug Description: When I try to compile I multiple errors like

../../../../../node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts:344:37 - error TS2792: Cannot find module 'undici-types'. Did you mean to set the 'moduleResolution' option to 'nodenext', or to add aliases to the 'paths' option?

344         type RequestDuplex = import("undici-types").RequestDuplex;

All of them are in the same file, globals.d.ts.

(2) Steps to reproduce (if you know):

Trying to complie via any source

(3) Expected behavior: Successful compilation

(4) Distribution (run cat /etc/os-release): Arch Linux

(5) Gnome Shell version: Gnome Shell 45

I've encountered the same error; not with this "shell" repo, but in another context. But since this is the top google result for the error (and there is virtually no info on it), I figured I'd still post my solution here...

The only solution I've found so far is to downgrade @types/node from 20.10.6 to 20.0.0. (forced the downgrade using yarn's "resolutions" feature: https://classic.yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/selective-version-resolutions)

Kind of weird, I fixed this error by deleting node_modules directory.

For NPM users, add "@types/node": "20.0.0" to devDependencies and run npm install. Had this issue compiling my TS after updating some stuff to troubleshoot a different issue which was actually iCloud processes going nuts.
