From 60fb7579bac738809b1776dbcd95ccacf7413c57 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Khem Raj Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2021 01:02:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 10/10] oprofile: Determine the root home directory dynamically This commit detects the root home directory dynamically with changes to the oprofile gui app source. The commit replaces an earlier fix that detected and adjusted a 'non-standard' root home directory at build time. The advantage of this patch is that the oprofile tools are adjusted to the current run-time path to ~root, not the build time path.
