it seems that the decalration of RouteLookup was added on this file packages/express/src/declarations.ts on this commit

26aa937#diff-8a215d34dc2acdeff0871a1946ad1c914ebf5c039cfdb080c994c3d5652d6ac9
"
thought i dont understand why as the package feathersjs/feathers does not export it

I am not able to reproduce this issue (but ran into #3319 which will be fixed in the next release) when generating an app with the following options:

You can however try to import '@feathersjs/transport-commons' in your app.ts file which may fix this as well.
