Bug#958165: linux-perf-5.5: Regression: python bindings were removed

[Dima Kogan]

Package: linux-perf-5.5
Version: 5.5.17-1
Severity: normal

Hi.

With earlier versions of the packaged perf tool I could use the python
bindings:

  perf_5.2 script -s clockfunction.py

With 5.5 it does this:

  perf_5.5 script -s clockfunction.py

  Python scripting not supported.  Install libpython and rebuild perf to enable 
it.
  For example:
    # apt-get install python-dev (ubuntu)
    # yum install python-devel (Fedora)
    etc.

Can we please put this back?

Thanks!
