A root session daemon _and_ "tracing" group user membership are required to 
trace the kernel.

 src/common/error.c | 2 +-

-       [ ERROR_INDEX(LTTNG_ERR_NEED_ROOT_SESSIOND) ] = "Tracing the kernel 
requires a root lttng-sessiond daemon or \"tracing\" group user membership",
+       [ ERROR_INDEX(LTTNG_ERR_NEED_ROOT_SESSIOND) ] = "Tracing the kernel 
requires a root lttng-sessiond daemon and \"tracing\" group user membership",

   Unless there's been a change in the code, that is just not true.  You can 
trace the kernel just fine without 'tracing' group membership, as long as you 
have sudo privileges (and can thus call 'sudo -H lttng').  The root daemon is 
necessary either way: the text should just read "Tracing the kernel requires a 
root lttng-sessiond daemon".
