NO, se B-Ds for Ubuntu-kernel v3.2:

Build-Depends: dpkg (>= 1.13.19), debhelper (>= 5), gawk

Please, see advices in 'tools/Makefile':

        @echo 'You can do:'
        @echo ' $$ make -C tools/ <tool>_install'
        @echo ''
        @echo '  from the kernel command line to build and install one of'
        @echo '  the tools above'
        @echo ''
        @echo '  $$ make tools/install'
        @echo ''
        @echo '  installs all tools.'

If looked quickly over diverse Makefile one was saying liblk FORCE, so
it should be built, but is NOT!

Thanks anyway, Peter for all the hints!

If you tell me where you discuss perf issues I can describe the problem.
