Module '"@lingui/macro"' has no exported member 'defineMessage'.

[ThomasSalty]

Describe the bug Wanted to try out the defineMessage macro in a React/Typescript project but received this error message from my IDE (vs code): Module '"@lingui/macro"' has no exported member 'defineMessage'.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior, possibly with minimal code sample, e.g:

import { defineMessage, Trans } from '@lingui/macro'

Expected behavior Not receiving that error message. Please note that importing t or Trans does not produce this error message.

@ThomasSalty @jzsn2018 Hello, could you please tell me what version of the @lingui/macro package you used your projects? If you used the version 2.8.3 as your initial comment suggest, then you will have to update the package to version 3.0.0 or later to use the defineMessage macro as previous versions didn't have this feature.
