I wonder if there is some rule about using this 'lib' prefix. Mostly just preference by those creating it. I used it to differentiate the terms. "tracefs" is the file system that "libtracefs" manipulates. And libtraceevents is because it's always been that. I'm not even sure if I'm the one that called it. It also should match the name of the repos. As we call the repos libtracefs and libtraceevent, we should have the pkgconfig files match it as well. And the name of the packages (.deb or .rpm) should match. -- Steve
