Package: prospect
Version: 5:0.9.8b-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Trying to run prospect:
erikd at mingus > sudo prospect ls
Time: ls
Can't open /proc/ksyms
- errno = 2 -- No such file or directory
3.635 BUG at Line0517:linux_model.c Couldn't find "num_physpages" in /proc/ksyms.
Warning: couldn't import System.map file - kernel profiles disabled.
prospect: couldn't find "/lib/modules/2.6.12/oprofile/oprofile.o"
NOTE: Prospect depends on a functional oprofile installation. You can get
oprofile from http://oprofile.sf.net. However, make sure to read the
prospect README.INSTALL file since you may already have an oprofile
distribution that was delivered with prospect, but not installed.
Check the /usr/share/doc/prospect[-0.9.8b] directory.
prospect
I complains about not finding oprofile but:
erikd at mingus > lsmod |grep oprofile
oprofile 31232 0
It also complains about a lack of /proc/ksyms whcih I believe has been replaced
with /proc/kallsyms.
