This is an indicator +of a bug in user code. + +The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to ignore attempts to set the link +libraries of utility targets. The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is to +report an error if an attempt is made to set the link libraries of a +utility target. + +This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.0. CMake version +|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior. Use +the :command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly. + +.. include:: DEPRECATED.txt |
