Unfortunately targets behave differently than variables and can give different results when multiple find_package calls with different hints or options are made. That is not really supported anyway because we have only one CMakeCache.txt so there is only one FOO_LIBRARY variable. A project can achieve it with careful handling and typically by keeping the find_package calls in separate directories where imported targets are scoped apart anyway. -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.

We can introduce a policy for compatibility later if needed.

[cmake-developers] [PATCH 0/5] IMPORTED targets for some Find modules
To simplify exporting targets I added IMPORTED targets to some of the Find modules. Unfortunately targets behave differently than variables and can give different results when multiple find_package calls with different hints or options are made. There could be possible work-arounds (e.g. versioned namespaces), but I opted for the simplest solution and the use-case seems unusual to me.
