| 6 | .SH NAME |
| 7 | ldd \- print shared library dependencies |
| 8 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
| 9 | .B ldd |
| 10 | .RB [ \-vVdr ] |
| 11 | program|library ... |
| 12 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 13 | .B ldd |
| 14 | prints the shared libraries required by each program or shared library |
| 15 | specified on the command line. |
| 16 | If a shared library name does not contain a '/', |
| 17 | .B ldd |
| 18 | attempts to locate the library in the standard locations. |
| 19 | To run |
| 20 | .B ldd |
| 21 | on a shared library in the current directory, a "./" must be prepended |
| 22 | to its name. |
| 23 | .SH OPTIONS |
| 24 | .TP |
| 25 | .B \-v |
| 26 | Print the version number of |
| 27 | .BR ldd . |
| 28 | .TP |
| 29 | .B \-V |
| 30 | Print the version number of the dynamic linker, |
| 31 | .BR ld.so . |
| 32 | .TP |
| 33 | .B \-d |
| 34 | Perform relocations and report any missing functions (ELF only). |
| 35 | .TP |
| 36 | .B \-r |
| 37 | Perform relocations for both data objects and functions, and |
| 38 | report any missing objects (ELF only). |
| 39 | .SH BUGS |
| 40 | .B ldd |
| 41 | does not work very well on libc.so.5 itself. |
| 42 | .PP |
| 43 | .B ldd |
| 44 | does not work on a.out shared libraries. |
| 45 | .PP |
| 46 | .B ldd |
| 47 | does not work with some extremely old a.out programs which were |
| 48 | built before |
| 49 | .B ldd |
| 50 | support was added to the compiler releases. |
| 51 | If you use |
| 52 | .B ldd |
| 53 | on one of these programs, the program will attempt to run with argc = 0 and |
| 54 | the results will be unpredictable. |
