Patch reverts upstream commit: https://github.com/collectd/collectd/commit/6124da7a48f28f54fc09ebeb942d1037516fe6ab The commit changed the detection path due to FreeBSD issues, but apparently affects also Openwrt buildroot negatively. Original explanation: From 6124da7a48f28f54fc09ebeb942d1037516fe6ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 Subject: [PATCH] Fix libmodbus detection on FreeBSD We look for modbus/modbus.h in /usr/local/include/modbus but we should look for modbus.h This is only an issue on FreeBSD since /usr/local/include is not in the default search path.
