Bug#661996: Missing Recommends: linux-tools

[Goswin von Brederlow <goswin-v-b@web.de>]

Package: linux-base
Version: 3.4
Severity: normal

Hi,

linux-base contains /usr/bin/perf but running that gives:

mrvn@frosties:~% perf
/usr/bin/perf: line 24: exec: perf_3.1: not found
E: linux-tools-3.1 is not installed.

A Recommends: linux-tools would ensure that at least the perf_x.y for
the current kernel is normally installed. I've also filed a bug against
linux-tools-3.2 that there should be a more generic perf_3, in which
case linux-base should recommend that.

MfG
