Public bug reported:

I am unable to launch perf on 4.11.0-9-generic (artful) running on
artful-proposed

/usr/lib/linux-tools/4.11.0-9-generic/perf: error while loading shared
libraries: libbfd-2.28-system.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory

It seems this library is provided by binutils, however the symlink
doesn't exist like it does on my xenial system for comparison.

lathiat@ubuntu:~$ dpkg -L binutils|grep bfd|grep so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbfd-2.28.51-system.20170627.so

lathiat@ubuntu:~$ ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/*libbfd*
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbfd-2.28.51-powerpc.20170627.so  
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbfd-2.28.51-system.20170627.so

On xenial:
root@hyper:~# ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/*libbfd*
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbfd-2.26.1-system.so  
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbfd.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbfd-2.26-system.so    
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbfd.so


Not clear to me where the bug lies here, so starting with the 'perf' binary by 
way of the kernel package.  But may be an issue with something else.  I did 
notice quickly running 'ldd' in /usr/bin that it seems other files are linking 
against the above so directly.
