Needs adapting to procps-ng v4.x #932

procps-ng renamed the pkgconfig and the library, and removed readproc.h. Apitrace needs to be updated to work with the new version.

I was planning to deprecate procps use in apitrace, because:

  • apitrace can build fine without procps
  • the functionality provided by procps (memory usage) is not super important
  • procps doesn't seem to be keen to provide a stable interface/headers

In other words, do nothing. At least unless a charitable soul finds a way to make this work again.

Any objection?

I have no preference as I don't use apitrace (I just work on packaging for a distro and encountered this when updating procps). It seems reasonable to me to deprecate support for it if it no longer works and nobody steps up to fix it.
