Hi Deborah,

I've been trying the tracer, nice work.

I found during compilation is that the dependency on json-c might be a bit over
agressive. My device OS is Fedora 36 (so not too old) and version 0.16 was not
available there. I downgrade to 0.15 and it "worked", at least I think. Are you
aware of any issue with downgrading this version for wider support ?

nit: I think it would be nice to have some way to fail the configure stage if
the deps is missing.

While trying out the tracer, I stumbled across this being hardcoded. It is
rather inconvenient since you must be in the build tree to use it. I wonder how
we could fix this, or even hide the re-load library ? Have you checked if you
could preload using the ld library C interface ?
