Unregistered nested dependencies

General Usage
1

Hi all. I have a local package (PackageOne) which uses an unregistered package (PythonStructs) as a dependency. I would then like to use said local package as a dependency for a second local package (PackageTwo).

The Project.toml for PackageOne is, using the source path functionality in 1.11,

name = "PackageOne"
uuid = "dbf1826d-e942-4fc0-a003-44f9f33e530f"
authors = ["polhager"]
version = "0.1.0"

[deps]
PythonStructs = "ac2a11db-85c8-4716-89e7-c323b56359f0"

[sources]
PythonStructs = {url = "https://github.com/mkitti/PythonStructs.jl.git"}

This works fine for PackageOne, I can do instantiate and everything. When trying to add PackageOne to PackageTwo, I get the following:

(@v1.11) pkg> activate PackageTwo
  Activating project at `~/.julia/dev/PackageTwo`

(PackageTwo) pkg> dev ./PackageOne
   Resolving package versions...
ERROR: Unsatisfiable requirements detected for package PythonStructs [ac2a11db]:
 PythonStructs [ac2a11db] log:
 ├─PythonStructs [ac2a11db] has no known versions!
 └─restricted to versions * by PackageOne [dbf1826d] — no versions left
   └─PackageOne [dbf1826d] log:
     ├─possible versions are: 0.1.0 or uninstalled
     └─PackageOne [dbf1826d] is fixed to version 0.1.0

Short of adding PythonStructs to our own internal registry, which I would prefer to avoid since it is not a package developed by us, or adding PythonStructs explicitly to PackageTwo, which I would prever to avoid since it is in fact not a direct dependency, what can I do to solve this?
