Angular cli 1.6 and Typescript 2.5.3 warning

[2beers]

I've recently updated to Angular 5.1.0 and Angular CLI 1.6.0 which is supposed to be typescript 2.5 friendly however I'm receiving the following warning

@angular/compiler-cli@5.1.0 requires typescript@'>=2.4.2 <2.5.0' but 2.5.3 was found instead.

Will be fixed by #8766

In case the team isn't aware, TS is already up to 2.6.2. So even expanding the peer dependency range to <2.6 is already outdated. So the range probably should become <2.7?

[mvhecke]

@brian428 Angular itself doesn't support 2.6 yet, this will arrive in one of the upcoming minor releases. https://blog.angular.io/angular-5-1-more-now-available-27d372f5eb4e

Is there some way to make CLI not add its own additional requirement on top of what the underlying package requires? It was pointed out over in the Angular repo that the Angular package already has the correct dependency. I'd rather see CLI just accept the upstream requirement from Angular itself, rather than have things like this that have to be changed to match Angular, if possible?

[jtsom]

So this didn't make it into the 1.6.1 release?

I agree with @kylecordes that this warning is probably redundant as Angular already requires correct version using peerDependencies. Tested with CLI 1.6.1:

$ ng new tsv
$ cd tsv
# edit package.json to install typescript 2.6.1
$ npm i
npm WARN @angular/compiler-cli@5.1.1 requires a peer of typescript@>=2.4.2 <2.6 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.
npm WARN tsickle@0.25.5 requires a peer of typescript@>=2.4.2 <2.6 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.
