This is a general issue, and doesn't appear in a single case. But, the common problem in all the cases is that you forget to import a specific component (doesn't matter if it's either from a library that you installed or a custom made component that you created):

import {SomeClass} from 'some-library'

When you use it later, without importing it, the compiler thinks it's a function. Therefore, it breaks. This is a common example:

imports

...code...

and then somewhere inside your code

If you forgot to import the component then the compiler will not complain like it does for other imports, but will break when it reaches your code.
