-Subject: [PATCH] Fix detection of ROS build
-
-CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH is not an environment variable, but CMake's
-internal one that contains a list of items (strings). This
-list needs to be concattenated into a single string in order
-to become "match"-able against a regex.

-Upstream-Status: Submitted [https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/pull/387]
