Also, I do still forget it still today but after installing URCU and UST:

$ sudo ldconfig

> No. Distribution packages usually lag behind the project upstream.
> Ubuntu 12.04 has been released last year, and their policy don't allow them to update the packages within this specific distribution version.

> This is why you run into trouble when you try to mix distribution packages (from last year) with the current development head.

> Don't mix packages from distributions with packages built from sources when version dependencies don't match. All the required dependency information is found in the README files of each project.

>     Userspace RCU library, by Mathieu Desnoyers and Paul E. McKenney
>     -> This release depends on liburcu v0.7.2
>       * Debian/Ubuntu package: liburcu-dev

>       * Releases: http://lttng.org/files/urcu

> Doesn't this say that I can get the required liburcu from git.lttng.org's userspace-rcu?  Could it be version 0.7.6 is not retro-compatible with 0.7.2 (that is to say, lttng-ust requires 0.7.2, and 0.7.2 only, not "0.7.2 or later")?
