On the contrary, it does see those imports, and indicates that those dependencies are used, but are not direct dependencies in your dependency tree, and instead installed because other dependencies rely on them: https://fpgmaas.github.io/deptry/rules-violations/#transitiv...

That's really useful. I find it really common for people to import transitive dependencies in python. A common one is putting something like matplotlib in deps then directly importing numpy. Seems to happen all the time.
