+oprofile: Determine the root home directory dynamically
+
+This commit detects the root home directory dynamically with changes to
+the oprofile gui app source.
+
+The commit replaces an earlier fix that detected and adjusted a
+'non-standard' root home directory at build time. The advantage of this
+patch is that the oprofile tools are adjusted to the current run-time
+path to ~root, not the build time path.
+
+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [OE specific]
