TypeScript type errors when running in PNPM workspace

I changed nothing about my code other than doing a full clean build. Working code now failing with type errors. I am on version:
"drizzle-orm": "^0.29.1",
"drizzle-orm": "^0.29.1",
I am getting this error:

There's nothing strange about my schema that i can tell:
import {
date,
pgEnum,
pgSchema,
primaryKey,
text,
varchar,
} from "drizzle-orm/pg-core";

export const place = public_db.table("place", {
placeId: varchar("place_id").notNull().primaryKey(),
state: varchar("state", { length: 2 }).notNull(),
county: text("county").notNull(),
city: text("city"),
createdAt: date("created_at").defaultNow(),
});

export const hearing = public_db.table(
"hearing",
{
placeId: varchar("place_id")
.notNull()
.references(() => place.placeId),
date: date("date").notNull(),
boardType: BoardType("board_type").notNull(),

This error makes no sense:

Here, the following code compiles fine.
type A = PgColumn<

tableName: "place";
dataType: "string";
columnType: "PgVarchar";
data: string;
driverParam: string;

hasDefault: false;
enumValues: [string, ...string[]];
baseColumn: never;
},
{},
{}
>;
type B = PgColumn<ColumnBaseConfig<ColumnDataType, string>, {}, {}>;
declare const a: A;
declare const b: B;

const c: B = a;
type A = PgColumn<
{
name: "state";
tableName: "place";
dataType: "string";
columnType: "PgVarchar";
data: string;
driverParam: string;
notNull: true;
hasDefault: false;
enumValues: [string, ...string[]];

{}

type B = PgColumn<ColumnBaseConfig<ColumnDataType, string>, {}, {}>;
declare const a: A;
declare const b: B;

const c: B = a;
Something really weird going on.

ok, have confirmed one thing: I do not get the type errors if i do the select in the same NPM package as i declare the schema So, perhaps it's something to do with PNPM workspaces since I am consuming the schema from another pacakge frontend -> database have confirmed the problem happens in a PNPM workspace, even if you ensure all versions of drizzle-orm the same, peer dependencies, etc. typescript gets confused and thinks there are two packages instead of 1 seems to really hinge around the use of unique symbols but i am not sure I can workaround this problem by moving everything into a single package and re-exporting drizzle-orm/pg-core from that. This ensures there's only one version of drizzle-orm installed. But I am left very confused: this used to work. Only after doing a clean build did i find the problem. I suspect something fucky with my config.
