redux-thunk with typescript

Question

I am trying to learn redux and I am trying to implement the redux-thunk middleware. I've been following a few different tutorials and they suggest something similar to this:

import thunk from "redux-thunk";
import promise from "redux-promise-middleware";
...
const middleware = applyMiddleware(promise(), thunk);
const store = createStore(reducers, middleware);

This gives me the following error:

/Users/me/Documents/workspace/redux/node_modules/redux-thunk/index.d.ts (4,47): Generic type 'Dispatch' requires 2 type argument(s).

Can someone please explain what is going on and how to fix this?

Many thanks

This problem turns out to be related to the new version of redux (4.0.0) being incompatible with the current version of redux-thunk (2.2.0).
