Thanks,

Did you rebase your repo or do I need to pull in the other patches from
the mbox?

One comment below.

Looks good, but I would use the example of this:

make prefix=~
make prefix=~ install

The above would install the executables into your home directory ~/bin
and the plugins into ~/.trace-cmd/plugins

That is an oddity, I tried to show a general case.
We could append more info about that special case if you wish.

The general case would probably be better to:

make prefix=/usr
