TypeScript Errors due to dependency woes

[pfumagalli]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have checked for existing issues https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/issues
• I have reviewed the documentation https://docs.sentry.io/
• I am using the latest SDK release https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/releases

How do you use Sentry?

Sentry Saas (sentry.io)

Which SDK are you using?

@sentry/node

SDK Version

9.15.0

Framework Version

Node 20.19.1, TypeScript 5.8.3

Link to Sentry event

No response

Reproduction Example/SDK Setup

The @sentry/node@9.15.0 package pulls in @opentelemetry/instrumentation-pg@0.51.1, which in turn pulls in @types/pg@8.6.1. When compiling, I get this:

│ /home/runner/work/lib-api-framework/lib-api-framework/node_modules/@types/pg/index.d.ts
│   12:31  Cannot find module 'pg-protocol/dist/messages' or its corresponding type declarations. [TS2307]
│          | import { NoticeMessage } from 'pg-protocol/dist/messages';

The problem arises when building against @sentry/node with module resolution set to bundler, and it's rather annoying as we (for example) don't use any instrumentation.

Reported upstream here.

Steps to Reproduce

Set module resolution in tsconfig.json to bundler and run tsc

Expected Result

Types should compile

Actual Result

Got this error:

Cannot find module 'pg-protocol/dist/messages' or its corresponding type declarations. [TS2307]

[lforst]

Hi, thanks for raising. Imo the OTEL instrumentation should probably not pull any types packages into the dependencies at all. We'll see if we can upstream the removal of the types packages from the dependencies.

@lforst is there an issue in otel that describes the removal of the types dependencies?
