> [Impact]

> ubuntu at ubuntu-plucky:~$ python3 -c 'import perf; [print(c) for c in perf.cpu_map()]'
> Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
>   File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/perf/__init__.py", line 24, in <module>
>     raise KernelNotFoundError()
> perf.KernelNotFoundError: WARNING: python perf module not found for kernel 6.12.0-4-generic
> 
> You may need to install the following packages for this specific kernel:
>   linux-tools-6.12.0-4-generic-generic
> You may also want to install of the following package to keep up to date:
>   linux-tools-generic
> 
> This works only with the main generic kernel but not with any of the derivatives.
> Packaging is broken and the perf python modules is looking in the wrong place for the library.
> 
> [Test Plan]
> 
> Run:
> $ python3 -c 'import perf; [print(c) for c in perf.cpu_map()]'
> $ perf
> 
> The above must not result in errors.
> 
> [Where Problems Could Occur]
> 
> Potential issues when using the perf python module or any scripts/binaries provided by the linux-tools packages.
