Re: not able to build Oprofile on ubuntu 14.04

Hi Shiva, I haven't understood why you copy libiberty.a and/or lrt.a anywhere...
This shouldn't be necessary to be done.

You just need to install packages:

apt-get install libiberty-dev binutils-dev libpopt-dev libc6-dev

The clock_gettime() function should be available in libc6-dev.

Having that (and build-essentials), you should be able to proceed through the
./configure pass without any other problems.
