Subject: CMake: Remove dump-cache feature.
X-Git-Tag: v8.2.0-rc1~501
X-Git-Url: https://gitweb.dealii.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f392fd310f1042dcff7073272f274fcbbcbfe600;p=dealii.git

CMake: Remove dump-cache feature.

CMake-2.12* is able to read in a CMakeCache.txt file directly, so remove
this horrible code
