I'd love to do so but the command still has a real purpose.
Find modules can return MYPKG_LIBRARY_DIRS with a list of
directories and MYPKG_LIBRARIES with a list of libraries by
name rather than full path.  The only way to use these is

 find_package(MYPKG)
 link_directories(${MYPKG_LIBRARY_DIRS})
 target_link_libraries(myexe ${MYPKG_LIBRARIES})
