BUILDING:

In order to install build dependencies on Debian / Ubuntu do the following: sudo apt-get install build-essential git pkg-config -y sudo apt-get install libtracefs-dev libtraceevent-dev -y

In order to install build dependencies on Fedora, as root do the following: dnf install gcc make git pkg-config -y dnf install libtracefs-devel libtraceevent-devel -y

In case your distribution does not have the required libtracefs and libtraceevent libraries, build and install them manually:

git clone https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtraceevent.git/
cd libtraceevent
make
sudo make install

git clone https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git/
cd libtracefs
make
sudo make install
