Public bug reported: I want to get the stap-prep command (part of systemtap package) working with ubuntu desktop 24.04 x64
I am using ubuntu desktop 24.04.4 on x64, along with gcc 13. Previously this computer was upgraded-in-place from 22.04 LTS and before that from 18.04 LTS on bare metal. I installed systemtap by following the (somewhat out of date): https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/SystemtapOnUbuntu and also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Systemtap I run stap-prep to ensure kernel-headers, debug-symbols and build-tools matching my current kernel are installed. But instead all I get is an error message as below: # stap-prep Configuring for kernel release 6.8.0-124-generic Please wait, attempting to download /lib/modules/6.8.0-124-generic/vmlinuz debuginfo Increasing DEBUGINFOD_TIMEOUT to 300 temporarily Cannot open /lib/modules/6.8.0-124-generic/vmlinuz: No such file or directory Server query failed: Invalid argument Download failed.
