Nx 17 - Buildable Angular libs fail lint upon generation with The "tslib" package is not used by "my-lib" project

[abaran30]

Current Behavior

When generating a buildable Angular library, lint for the new library fails right away with the following error:

  9:5  error  The "tslib" package is not used by "my-lib" project  @nx/dependency-checks

Expected Behavior

Newly generated Angular libraries (buildable or not) should not fail lint.

Additional Information

As shown in the failure logs, the lint error is fixable with the --fix option. The fixer removes tslib from the the library's package.json dependencies. Should tslib not be included upon generation?

Similarly I get an error during lint if I don't utilize @angular/core in a utility library.

6:3   error    The "@angular/core" package is not used by "my-util-lib" project.   @nx/dependency-checks

My organization uses these Angular libraries to hold utilities - some of which might just be plain TypeScript functions & could contain shared Angular Pipes for instance.

Is the expected behavior here to remove @angular/core from the library's package.json until an Angular class is used?
That seems kinda annoying to do if I wanted to add an Angular Pipe to a utility library that previously only contained a TypeScript helper function.

Hey! It looks your GH Repo is 404ing. Could you provide me with another repo so that I can investigate further?

[abaran30]

@Coly010 my apologies; did a repo cleanup and forgot I had one linked to this issue 😅.

I updated the issue description with a new repo; updated to latest Nx and issue is still reproducible.
