(This + fixed a bug that sometimes printed wrong status + messages in config mode.) + + * The ``QUIET`` argument passed to :command:`find_package` is no + longer ignored in config mode. + + * *Known issue*: The CMake package shipped with Boost ``1.70.0`` + ignores the ``QUIET`` argument passed to :command:`find_package`. + This is fixed in the next Boost release. + + * The input switch ``Boost_DETAILED_FAILURE_MSG`` was + removed. |
