in our build system we read the version of precompiled libraries with cmake from a file. This version and a well-known path suffix form the PATH attribute of the find_library (and similar) command. But if the version is gets changed, cmake will be still using the cached entry. My proposal is to add a parameter that changes the behaviour: Once the hints / paths, etc. to the find_library call changes, the cached result will be purged. Currently I'm using a self-written function to achieve this behaviour but I think it is generic and useful enough to have it provided within cmake itself.
