Package: oprofile-common
Version: 0.9.1-11

Without binutils installed, opcontrol --vmlinux=<vmlinux-file> --start
fails with:

The specified file <vmlinux-file> does not seem to be valid
Make sure you are using vmlinux not vmlinuz

Even a good vmlinux file triggers this error if objdump is not present
on the system. objdump is called in the get_kernel_range() function of
opcontrol. objdump is provided by the binutils package. Therefore,
oprofile should depend on binutils.
