NAME
       stap-prep - prepare system for systemtap use

SYNOPSIS
       stap-prep [ KERNEL_VERSION ]

DESCRIPTION
       The  stap-prep  executable prepares the system for systemtap use by installing kernel headers, debug symbols and build tools that match the
       currently running kernel or optionally the kernel version given by the user.

       The exact behavior of stap-prep may be customized by the distribution maintainers. It might for example only give suggestions and not actu-
       ally install the required packages if that is difficult to automate.

EXAMPLES
	      $ stap-prep
	      Please install linux-image-3.2.0-2-amd64-dbg
