Bug#664834: linux-tools: please build perf utils on Alpha.

[Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz>]

Package: linux-tools
Version: 3.2.7-2
Severity: wishlist
User: debian-alpha@lists.debian.org

Could we have the perf tools built on Alpha please.  For some reason
they are not in the linux-tools package, whereas they are for other
arches.  Performance hardware event support for EV67/68 CPUs is in the
kernel and it would be nice to be able to use the perf tools on those
CPUs.  FWIW, I did do a "make" within the tools/perf directory of the
source package and the tools built successfully.

Thanks,
Michael.
