If I have library A, that depends on a library and an executable project that depends on library A, how can the executable project resolve the sub dependencies from A?</div>

<div><br></div><div><div>include(LibFindMacros)</div><div><br></div><div>find_path(LIBNW_INCLUDE_DIR NAMES nw.h PATHS ${LIBNW_PKGCONF_INCLUDE_DIRS})</div><div><br></div><div>find_library(LIBNW_LIBRARY NAMES nw PATHS ${LIBNW_PKGCONF_LIBRARY_DIRS})</div>
