What about:

  install(EXPORT MyExport DEPENDS YourPackage1 YourPackage2)

? That could create:

  if(NOT __MyExport_include_guard)
    set(__MyExport_included TRUE)
    find_package(YourPackage1)
    find_package(YourPackage2)
  endif()

before declaring the imported targets.
That way, we get the package dependencies resolved transitively.

Cheers, Daniel
