False positive with colon in multi-line comment

[Eprince-hub]

Bug Description

Depcheck reports an unused dependency when there is a colon inside a multi-line comment

Code snippets

Where the dependency is used:

import randomColor from "randomcolor";

const color = randomColor();
/* : */

Where the dependency is listed in package.json:

{
  "name": "nodejs-sandbox",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "depcheck": "depcheck"
  },
  "devDependencies": {},
  "dependencies": {
    "depcheck": "^1.4.7",
    "randomcolor": "^0.6.2"
  }
}

Using a colon inside a single-line comment or in a ternary shows no false positive

import randomColor from "randomcolor";

const color = randomColor();
// :
color ? 'a' : 'b';

Versions

• node -v: v20.12.0
