Typescript errors using RequireJS

[TicoDePano]

Shuffle version
v5.2.3

Describe the bug
Using Typescript compiler to build AMD modules that depends on Shuffle generates wrong constructor code.

Reproduction link
It is so simple that I did not create one.

To Reproduce
There are 2 types of errors when importing the module using Typescript imports:

import Shuffle from "shufflejs"

This way, it is compiled to
define(["require", "exports", "shufflejs"], function (require, exports, shufflejs_1) {});
but the Shuffle variable is always translated to shufflejs_1.default and variable shufflejs_1 seems undefined, so the code do not work.

import Shuffle = require("shufflejs");

The module generated is
define(["require", "exports", "shufflejs"], function (require, exports, Shuffle) {});
and works, but type definitions do not allow me to compile, unless using // @ts-ignore before every reference to Shuffle types.

I do not know why the module is not instantiated in first example, as the defines seems equals.

Expected behavior
Work with type checkings.

I'm not sure how to help here. It's been many years since I've touched RequireJS and I don't know how it works with TypeScript. If you can provide a reduced test case for it, I may be able to help.

You might be better off just ignoring all the types from Shuffle.

// Make sure this file is included in your tsconfig.json
declare module 'shufflejs';
