> We don’t want recursive dependencies in our process.

I see, what I meant was that I don’t get the indirect dependencies, which are also necessary (for example `mylib` → `libceres.dll` → `libopenblas.dll`.

> These look like globs. You want regexes (though these are valid regexes, they’re not exactly what you might think they are).

True, I just checked if the outcome was what I expected.

Thanks, I will file an issue at [https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues).
