sudo apt-get install libiberty-dev binutils-dev
mkdir ~/install
cd ~/install
# If the following apt-get doesn't work on your system,
# uncomment deb-src lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list,
# as suggested by @ctitze
# or you can download it manually from packages.ubuntu.com
# as @aleixrocks suggested in the comment below
apt-get source linux-tools-`uname -r`
sudo apt-get build-dep linux-tools-`uname -r`
cd linux-`uname -r | sed 's/-.*//'`/tools/perf
make

# now you should see the new "perf" executable here
./perf
There should be also some way to create a new linux-tools-common package to really integrate it into your system. For now to override the official perf with your new one, just set your PATH:

export PATH=~/install/linux-`uname -r | sed 's/-.*//'`/tools/perf:$PATH

This I need... Trying to migrate OS as Microsoft accounts hacked... But no joy .. As 8 hours and no Ubuntu ran out of battery

Appreciate the knowledge drop done step by step ... Some of us need it because some of us went from Dos to Graphical HMI and don't remember shit for command line and now realize what a bad decision it was .. Appreciate yalls patience BC I can't imagine how frustrating it is ... Was just reading a article talking about the need to migrate accounts in some Linux distributions ... What's your take ... Boot disk over Bare metal?
