Hi guys. I am publishing a library, foo:foo-runtime:0.1.0 with many KMP targets on a local repository. The library source sets look like this:
• frontendMain is a plain jvm target
• backendMain is a parent for all androidNative* targets
The lib also ships a Gradle plugin which observes the KMP plugin and adds foo:foo-runtime:0.1.0 individually to all supported targets that it finds (either jvm or androidNative). It’s the common pattern of a Gradle plugin that adds the runtime dependency automatically.

Now in the consumer project, :bar, I apply this plugin and add relevant targets.
• When I declare jvm() target, I can correctly see stuff from foo:frontendMain
• When I declare androidNativeArm64() target (for example), I can correctly see stuff from foo:backendMain
• But in my merged source set bar:androidNativeMain, which is a parent for all androidNative* targets, I can’t see foo:backendMain at all.
I seem to remember this used to work, shouldn’t it?

Note: my plugin can’t add foo:foo-runtime:0.1.0 to bar:androidNativeMain, it doesn’t know what source sets exists, it can only act on the individual end targets. Also I can’t add it to commonMain because the library does not support all targets and if any of them is defined in the consumer project, Gradle fails.
