------- Comment From grom...@br.ibm.com 2019-03-18 14:24 EDT------- Frankly, it's quite upsetting not hearing from Canonical after so much time. I do understand that kernel team might frown upon adding a Java stuff as a dep for building the kernel packages and that any other similar conundrum might exist. But it seems Canonical is not paying much attention at all to that issue which, besides PPC64, also applies to other architectures.
I could even try to help working that upstream on perf side but without even knowing what's the Canonical plan for that bug it's moot because who knows exactly what's the hindrance here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1761379 Title: [18.04/18.10] File libperf-jvmti.so is missing in linux-tools-common deb on Ubuntu Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project: In Progress Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Artful: Won't Fix Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux source package in Cosmic: In Progress Status in linux source package in Disco: In Progress Bug description: ---Problem Description--- File libperf-jvmti.so is missing in linux-tools-common deb making it impossible to use perf for the JVM JITed methods ---uname output--- inux-image-4.13.0-36-generic Machine Type = not relevant ---Debugger--- A debugger is not configured ---Steps to Reproduce--- File libperf-jvmti.so is missing in linux-tools-common deb provided for Ubuntu 17.10 making it impossible to use perf for the JVM JITed methods.
