+:command:`find_package` uses ``PackageName_ROOT`` variables.
+
+In CMake 3.12 and above the ``find_package(PackageName)`` command now searches
+a prefix specified by a ``PackageName_ROOT`` CMake or environment variable.
+Package roots are maintained as a stack so nested calls to all ``find_*``
+commands inside find modules also search the roots as prefixes. This policy
+provides compatibility with projects that have not been updated to avoid using
+``PackageName_ROOT`` variables for other purposes.
+
+The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to ignore ``PackageName_ROOT``
+variables. The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is to use ``PackageName_ROOT``
+variables.
+
+This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.12. 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.
