Reenable LIBTRACEEVENT - it was disabled in commit 92550b568d (UBUNTU:
[Packaging] perf: build without libtraceevent) to temporarily reduce
the amount of build dependecies. According to LP#2076190 disabling
libtraceevent has reduced much of the functionality of perf. Perf is
no longer able to perform any operations on tracepoints.
It looks like libtraceevent was originally disabled for no other
reason than to reduce the number of build dependencies - and it even
seems like this disablement was not intended to be permenent (from
commit message: "Disable libtraceevent in perf to avoid adding extra
build dependencies for now.") I think there is no significant tradeoff
in reenabling libtraceevent as it is fixing a regression in
functionality introduced by commit 92550b568d.
v2: explain purpose of patch in greater detail as well as include a
buglink
v3: I build-tested both Noble/Oracular on LP PPAs, since v2 one of the
files in my patchset was modified and created a conflict with a
neighboring line (doesn't affect my changes), so I remade the patches
