Public bug reported: I'd like, not only to trace the java process, but use the new support for openjdk tracing in systemtap, both the hotspot tracing and the method tracing.
Accordingly i installed the ddebs.ubuntu.com[1] repository to install the kernel debuging symbols - i can then call a stap script that uses kernel tapsets but not yet java ones. I did notice a package called openjdk-7-jdk-dbgsym and tried to install it to see if this had the systemtap tapsets for the openjdk, but this conflicts with the openjdk-7-dbg package (which then ubuntu doesn't let me bug report since the openjdk-7-jdk-dbgsym package is not from the 'official' servers). And if i uninstall that one and install the other it doesn't help anyway. If the steps i followed to try to get systemtap java method tracing in ubuntu were incorrect and this can be done with packages from your reporsitories, feel free to close.
