💻 Code

Here's the code from the Stackblitz reproduction above.

src/index.ts:

import { fn } from 'test-pkg';
export const value = fn();

node_modules/test-pkg/index.d.ts:

declare const lostSymbol: unique symbol;
type lostSymbol = typeof lostSymbol;

type SomeGeneric<T> = {
    [lostSymbol]: T;
};

declare function fn(): SomeGeneric<unknown>;

export {
    lostSymbol,
    fn
};

🙁 Actual behavior

dist/index.d.ts:

export declare const value: {
    [lostSymbol]: unknown; // lostSymbol is not defined here and errors on the consumer's type check
};

🙂 Expected behavior

dist/index.d.ts:

import { lostSymbol } from 'test-pkg'; // should import from pacakge

export declare const value: {
    [lostSymbol]: unknown;
};
