I always get an Error that Lttng-UST requires shared libraries enabled. Why is this option available if I can't use it ? Is there something I'm missing Regards, Abdelrahman. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Is there something I'm missing This option is only there because it's part of the autotools boilerplate. It has been disabled by the lttng-ust project on purpose. See README.md: "LTTng-UST needs to be a shared library, _even if_ the tracepoint probe provider is statically linked into the application." Static linking of liblttng-ust has never been a supported use-case, and would require a significant design/implementation effort.
