To print the syscall name, the audit-libs-python package should be required. If not installed, print the erron string e.g.
# perf script syscall-counts Install the audit-libs-python package to get syscall names.
But the package name is different in Ubuntu so append examples the erron string like below. (similar to a error message of util/trace-event-scripting.c)
# perf script syscall-counts Install the audit-libs-python package to get syscall names. For example: # apt-get install python-audit (Ubuntu) # yum install audit-libs-python (Fedora) etc.
