[for-linus][PATCH 4/4] rtla: Consolidate and show all necessary libraries that failed for building

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Aug 10 2022 - 12:06:25 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When building rtla tools, if the necessary libraries are not installed
(libtraceevent and libtracefs), show the ones that are missing in one
consolidated output, and also show how to install them (at least for
Fedora).
