Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: oprofile

Working on http://code.google.com/p/unladen-swallow/ at PyCon 2010, I
discovered that oprofile does not work for samples emitted by the LLVM
JIT (they show up as anonymous rather than being linked to the python
source, line and name).

The problem is that the oprofile package was not installing the
opjitconv binary which is needed for opreport to be able to create
useful reports on the JIT samples.

I have built an tested a package which does install opjitconv, and this
enables profiling to work as expected. I will propose a branch for this
now, and would like to also push this fix back into Karmic as it should
be very low risk and the missing binary makes it very hard for anyone
wanting to do profiling to speed up python.

** Affects: oprofile (Ubuntu)
