Can't get ngx-bootstrap to work in plugin

[kcsampson]

Using the Angular 8 cli branch.

I'm trying to get anything from ngx-bootstrap to simply work in a plugin, even if the plugin imports the entire library.

I was able to get @angular/material working just fine.

Placing an entry linke 'ngx-bootstrap' in externals doesn't do the trick. I get:
