Describe the issue

When building a package with Auth.js installed as a dependency, there are multiple errors with @auth/core:

How to reproduce

1. npm init -y
2. npm install typescript @auth/core
3. Create the tsconfig.json

{
	"compilerOptions": {
		"strict": true,
		"verbatimModuleSyntax": true,
		"lib": ["ESNext"],
		"moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
		"module": "NodeNext",
		"target": "ESNext",
		"declaration": true,
		"outDir": "dist"
	},
	"include": ["src/**/*.ts"],
	"exclude": ["node_modules"]
}

Note that isolatedModules has no effect on the errors.

4. Create some code, importing @auth/core— import type * as auth from '@auth/core'; is sufficient
5. Try to compile with npx tsc

Expected behavior

@auth/core should not have these issues.

Adding nodemailer and @hexagon/base64 to the dependencies should resolve the errors concerning missing dependencies.

As for the missing exports— these types are defined, however they appear to be missing in the build (i.e. in node_modules/@auth/core/types.{js,d.ts}).

Quick Fix: (at expense of type-system accuracy)
"compilerOptions": {
"skipLibCheck": true, // Change from default 'false'
}

[james-pre]

Yup, I'm already doing this temporarily until a proper fix comes along.

also getting this with @auth/express

[ThangHuuVu]

in your setup you have both @auth/core and @auth/sveltekit which is unnecessary - can you try removing the @auth/core dependency? I tried it on the example app with latest @auth/sveltekit and didn't get the same issue.

@ThangHuuVu I'm getting the same error with @auth/express 0.10.1 and @auth/pg-adapter 1.9.1 installed (both latest). No @auth/core
