Quick start example fails to build

I'm using the very basic quick start example from https://crawlee.dev/docs/quick-start with simplest TypeScript template. First running npx crawlee create my-crawler and after cd my-crawler && npm start it runs successfully. But running "npm run build" fails with:


PS C:\Projects\crawlee\my-crawler> npm run build

> my-crawler@0.0.1 build
> tsc

node_modules/@crawlee/cheerio/internals/cheerio-crawler.d.ts:3:23 - error TS2688: Cannot find type definition file for 'node_modules/got/dist/source/core/timed-out'.

Looks like downgrading to 3.6.x should resolve

I solved this issue by adding "skipLibCheck": true in my tsconfig.json file:

{
    "extends": "@apify/tsconfig",
    "compilerOptions": {
        "module": "NodeNext",
        "moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
        "target": "ES2022",
        "outDir": "dist",
        "noUnusedLocals": false,
        "lib": [
            "DOM",
            "ES2021.String"
        ],
        "skipLibCheck": true
    },
    "include": [
        "./src/**/*"
    ]
}

    "extends": "@apify/tsconfig",
    "compilerOptions": {
        "module": "NodeNext",
        "moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
        "target": "ES2022",
        "outDir": "dist",
        "noUnusedLocals": false,
        "lib": [
            "DOM",
            "ES2021.String"
        ],
        "skipLibCheck": true
    },
    "include": [
        "./src/**/*"
    ]
}
