Running OctoPi 1.0.0 RC1 and OctoSlack wasn't working. Found the cause in the logs:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd'

Investigated and saw that the underlying OS for this release doesn't put vcgencmd in that folder anymore, it's now located in /bin/vcgencmd

I looked through the configs and didn't see where that path was coded so couldn't propose a change, but there is a simple update:

sudo mkdir -p /opt/vc/bin
sudo ln -s /bin/vcgencmd /opt/vc/bin
