Error when importing DatePickerModule in the latest angular (5.0.3)

[zlatsic]

I'm trying to add datetime pickers to my application, but am getting this error:
Unexpected value 'DatePickerModule' imported by the module 'AppModule'. Please add a @NgModule annotation.
It happens when I'm importing the datepicker like so:
import { DatePickerModule } from "angular-io-datepicker/src/datepicker/index";
Also, OverlayModule is imported normally.

I think this might be due to the Angular version, since this package supports v4 and I'm using v5, but would like confirmation since I only recently started using Angular. If not, I'd appreciate any advice in fixing this problem.

This library is not compatible with AOT. Try building with --aot=false
