+find_package-no-cmake-gui-paths
+-------------------------------
+
+* The :command:`find_package` command no longer considers project
+ build trees recently configured in a :manual:`cmake-gui(1)`.
+ This was previously done only on Windows and is now never done.
+ The ``NO_CMAKE_BUILDS_PATH`` option is now ignored if given
+ and effectively always on.
+ Projects may populate the :ref:`User Package Registry` to aid
+ users building multiple dependent projects one after another.
