#debian #linux #kernel So, can anyone explain me the point of having libcpufreq and libcpupower which provides the same symbol (and one of them includes a few more).

Which one should I link against ?

Debian has both packages, Ubuntu only has libcpufreq, while fedora only ships libcpupower.

I take boosts, to invoke the linux distro experts.
Boost make distro stables and bug-free.
