[csw-maintainers] Transitive dependencies: do we add them or not?

Suppose we have a binary foo, which needs libfoo.so.1, and only
libfoo.so.1. Then we have libfoo.so.1 which needs libbar.so.2. We get:
foo (in CSWfoo) → libfoo.so.1 (in CSWlibfoo1) → libbar.so.2 (in CSWlibbar2)
My understanding is that we should, as a rule, add a dependency from
CSWfoo to CSWlibfoo1, and from CSWlibfoo1 to CSWlibbar2, but not from
CSWfoo to CSwlibbar2.
Is this correct?
