Shadow Version

8.1.1

Gradle Version

8.6

Expected Behavior

I'm using gradle/libs to share dependencies in my multi-project-build (see https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/platforms.html).
I'd like to exclude some dependencies for some sub-projects (see https://imperceptiblethoughts.com/shadow/configuration/dependencies/#filtering-dependencies)...

Actual Behavior

... but for example exclude(dependency(libs.log4j.api)) raises an error: org.gradle.internal.typeconversion.UnsupportedNotationException: Cannot convert the provided notation to an object of type Dependency: map(valueof(DependencyValueSource)).
According to the libs-documentation (first link above), the call of libs.log4j.api should perform as if it was the plain string-dependency, but obviously, it doesn't.

Any ideas on this? Thanks!
