Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] perf build: Update error message for BUILD_NONDISTRO=1
Date: Sun,  3 May 2026 23:27:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260504062758.92001-1-namhyung@kernel.org> (raw)

It should say binutils-dev(el) instead of plain binutils package as it's
mostly installed already and can confuse people like me. :)
