DTrace installation

Edit: looks like DTrace is not needed. Make sure to 'apt-get install systemtap-sdt-dev' though.

  1. Download the latest source from ftp://crisp.dyndns-server.com/pub/release/website/dtrace (on the Ubuntu VM we are using dtrace-20130317) and unpack in %dtracedir%
  2. Run 'perl %dtracedir%/tools/get-deps.pl' and install the dependencies
  3. Run '%dtracedir%/make all'
  4. Run '%dtracedir%/make install'
  5. Run '%dtracedir%/make load' (this actually loads the dtrace drivers, you need to do this everytime you want to use dtrace after a reboot)
