Package: linux-perf
Version: 6.12.15-1
Severity: normal
Dear Debian folks,
With
$ LANG= dpkg -l linux-perf
[…]
ii linux-perf 6.12.15-1 amd64 Performance analysis
tools for Linux
recording a profile and trying to show it
$ sudo perf record -a -g -F 999
^C[ perf record: Woken up 42 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 11,877 MB perf.data (59158 samples) ]
$ sudo chown pmenzel: perf.data
$ perf report perf.data
the profile is loaded, but nothing is displayed, and only the header is
shown, and at the bottom the message below is written:
perf report` shows Cannot load tips.txt file, please install perf!
The file is shipped by `linux-perf`, but it’s compressed:
$ dpkg -S /usr/share/doc/linux-perf/tips.txt.gz
linux-perf: /usr/share/doc/linux-perf/tips.txt.gz
Uncompressing the file, the message is not shown anymore. Still nothing
is shown, but that is for another bug report.
Kind regards,
Paul
