** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification
+ =================
+ 
+ Impact
+ ------
+ newt UI (TUI) is disabled with perf report if libnewt-dev is unavailable
+ when perf is built.
+ 
+ Fix
+ ---
+ Ensure libnewt-dev is installed when building perf, adding the proper
+ Build-Depends to the linux source.
+ 
+ Testcase
+ --------
+ 1. perf record <command>
+ 2. perf report --tui
+ 3. perf report --stdio
+ 
+ For 2, newt interface should load with the recorded data (perf.data from
+ record command). Text interface (--stdio) should continue to work as
+ before, for the third invocation.
+ 
+ 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ 
  tui mode is more user friendly and and help in better analysis of
  perf.data . I guess we need to update some build dependencies.
