Looking at Github issues there is an ongoing effort to support cmake as
the main build system. So I would go with autotools for now and add
patch that removes .keep installation. In future we can convert to cmake
if that will be ready in next netdata release. Then we will drop
Buildroot specific patch and do improvements in cmake installation if
neccessary. What do you think about that?
