Some UX feedback after attempting to install it on Fedora:

1) Clicked Fedora on install docs

2) Installed lttng-tools and lttng-ust RPMs

3) Clicked Getting Started in docs. Ran "lttng list --kernel".

3a) Got an error saying I need to run the systemd service.

4) Started systemd service (didn't see this mentioned in the docs?)

5) Reran "lttng list --kernel".... error saying I'm missing a module

5a) Reread docs, realized I need to build LTTng-modules. Which led me to find out I need to also build liburcu

6) Installed liburcu but got an error building lttng-modules https://gist.github.com/dmix/d2d4c3c1b823e82486bf (I could submit this as a bug report?)

So I gave up to attempt the install another time.

Thanks for reporting your issues on Fedora.

4) We will definitely fix that omission.

5a) liburcu is a dependency of the lttng-ust and lttng-tools. The dependency should be accounted for in the respective Fedora packages.

6) Yes please submit a bug for this at [1]. We will investigate that failure to build on Fedora.

But the website looks excellent.
