Running kernelshark-v1.0-2.d_t.1.x86_64, selecting tools/record I get: ERROR: "Record is currently not supported. Install \"pkexec\" and then do:<br> cd build <br> sudo ./cmake_uninstall.sh <br> ./cmake_clean.sh <br> cmake .. <br> make <br> sudo make install"

It seems this upstream bug covers the same issue: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204475

The polkit integration was left out as the record operation requires root privilege gather the trace. There is a non-zero risk that a privilege escalation could be implemented via kernelshark although hard to imagine given local admin access would still be required. Given that kernelshark is a visualisation tool, I suggest gathering the trace with trace-cmd and then loading it with kernelshark.

Am I understanding correctly that using _service in the way it is done here, requires obs-service-set_version on the build platform? And since that appears not to be available, e.g., on SLE15, SLE15SP1, and SLE15SP2, the build does not work there?

While, on the other hand, using a "tar_scm" service, and run it manually for fetching the tarball (which will then be committed to the repository) would work there too?

Yep that would work - and yes you are right obs-service-set_version is the reason for build failure on SLE.
