Research direction
Start by checking the typings entry in package.json and the referenced source-map.d.ts file. Reproduce the Visual Studio 2019 error, then verify that the package metadata lets TypeScript resolve the declaration file without the TS6053 error.

Description
I'm getting this error in Visual Studio 2019 :
Error TS6053 File 'path-to-my-project/node_modules/source-map/source-map' not found.
The file is in the program because: Root file specified for compilation
The cause of this error seems to be this line in package.json:
"typings": "source-map",
If i change it to
"typings": "source-map.d.ts",
then everythings works fine.
