TS errors

I’m getting these errors upon building my project:

../node_modules/@types/webpack/index.d.ts(586,28): error TS2507: Type 'typeof "[...]/node_modules/@types/tapable/index"' is not a constructor function type.

following up on @jesion npm install @types/tapable@0.2.5 --save-dev fixes the issue

This appears to be a result of @types/webpack aggressively getting @types/tapable latest version 1.0.0.

From @types/webpack (2.2.16) package.json:

  "dependencies": {
    "@types/node": "*",
    "@types/tapable": "*",
    "@types/uglify-js": "*"
  },

Which would resolve to semver 1.0.0 according to the list of releases, but as noted above, the “compatible” working version is 0.2.5. When specifying 0.2.5 manually, it works, and the version specification must have been fixed in a more recent version of @types/webpack according to @Brunoon.
