Describe the bug

I just installed renovate on https://github.com/TWiStErRob/net.twisterrob.colorfilters/pull/46

It somehow detected this line as a dependency:

https://github.com/TWiStErRob/net.twisterrob.colorfilters/blob/ce585afdd4c9b837c1d44eb9cf64da06675abb90/buildSrc/src/main/kotlin/build.android-base.conventions.gradle.kts#L90

and failed to find it...

Hi there,

Help us by making a minimal reproduction repository.

Before we can start work on your issue we first need to know exactly what's causing the current behavior. A minimal reproduction helps us with this.

To get started, please read our guide on creating a minimal reproduction to understand what is needed.

We may close the issue if you (or someone else) have not provided a minimal reproduction within two weeks. If you need more time, or are stuck, please ask for help or more time in a comment.

Good luck,

No logs at all

Hi, thanks for reporting. If you have the time, please reduce it to a minimal reproduction and embed the relevant logs here. Instructions for both are above

[TWiStErRob]

I didn't see anything in the logs (DEBUG), just that it found the dependency in that file, which we know from the warning too.

[rarkins]

OK, next step is working out if only a small file is needed to trigger the mistaken dep or if it only happens within a larger file
