I don't think "ldd" alone is the way to go, because it doesn't make distinction beetween direct and indirect links, and thus real and deep deps. To give you the idea, there's a patch in this thread for Spider's "depreverse" script, which shows how to filter "ldd" output to keep only NEEDED libs (using "objdump" here, although it would be doable with "scanelf" too nowdays): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/27288 -- TGL. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
