[ltt-dev] LTTng PPA status update

[Alexandre Montplaisir]

Hi all,

Just reporting some new exciting additions to the Ubuntu PPAs:

The Stable PPA[1] now contains a kernel package for Natty, based on
Ubuntu's 2.6.38, lttng 0.248 and lttng-modules 0.19.9. As before, you
can simply "sudo apt-get install lttng" and it will pull in the patched
kernel and ltt-control.


The Experimental PPA[2] now contains an updated build of LTTV with
live-trace-reading capabilities, as well as a new "lttng-modules"
package for Natty, which installs a development snapshot of the new
"LTTng 2.0". This does not require a patched kernel anymore!


Finally the new Daily Build PPA[3] offers/will offer daily git builds of
lttng-modules, lttng-tools, ust, liburcu and lttv. Expect breakage, but
if you want to test the latest and greatest versions there is no better
option!


Big thanks to Mike Jeanson for the new daily stuff! As usual, make sure
you read the instructions on each page before installing anything.
