Hi,

I just see a similar question to which you seem to give the opposite answer: [Using the same namespace for multiple independant projects - #2 by ben.boeckel](https://discourse.cmake.org/t/using-the-same-namespace-for-multiple-independant-projects/8669/2)  
Can you clarify?  
Or how can I edit local PackageName’s configuration file to declare the new components (ideally directly from the new library cmake project)?

Regards,  
A.
