Maybe its called libpopt-dev?

Before OpenHPI 2.10, the sysfs plugin could not build with libsysfs >= 2.0 
because of an incompatibility. Since OpenHPI 2.10, it can. So, if 2.10 is 
what you are using, then feel free to remove this requirement from the 
spec file. I will make a note and remove it for release 2.10.1.
