Re: Cannot build KernelShark on Ubuntu 22.04

Thanks Yordan

I am now using the instructions at GitHub:

https://github.com/yordan-karadzhov/kernel-shark/tree/kernelshark

I installed:

sudo apt-get install qt6-base-dev qt6-scxml-dev
sudo apt-get install libtraceevent-dev libtracefs-dev libtracecmd-dev trace=
-cmd

but I see:

$ cmake ../

 project: Kernel Shark: (version: 2.3.1)

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:48 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindTraceEvent.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
  has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "TraceEvent", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "TraceEvent" with
  any of the following names:

    TraceEventConfig.cmake
    traceevent-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "TraceEvent" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "TraceEvent_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "TraceEvent" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it h=
as
  been installed.
