It is working again for me too. Thanks for the quick fix.
Related to .debug, I think it would be useful to have a choice as to
where all that stuff gets saved. It is hardcoded to $HOME today.
We could provide:
- an environment variable, e.g., PERFHOME or PERFDEBUGDIR
- an option to perf record, perf report, perf annotate, i.e., all commands
that use .debug
I looked at that today and I have a draft patch to add both the variable
+ the option.
The problem with the environment variable is that you tend to forget to
set it. As you suggest below, you may run perf report on another machine
too and you don't necessarily want to overwrite the .debug you may already
have in your $HOME dir. I think the option has the advantage of making this
explicit. It would still default to $HOME if not set.
