Summary0004378: Boost libs are not found
DescriptionMy C++ program uses Boost, so I put find_package(Boost) into CMakeLists.txt

I found out that Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS variable doesn't get its way into cache, it remains local to FindBoost.cmake and therefore cannot be used.

Simple fix: (FindBoost.cmake, line 144):

SET(Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS ${Boost_LIBRARY_DIR} CACHE FILEPATH "Boost library dir")

Why does it need to go in the cache ?

The updated FindBoost module now sets Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS as a cache variable when Boost is found.
