NAME
dep.pl − a script to check dependencies
SYNOPSIS
dep.pl [options] files ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the dep.pl utility.
dep.pl is a program that checks the dependencies of a set of files, using ldd, then outputs a nice report or an easily-parsable list of files.
OPTIONS
The program
follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options
starting with two dashes (’−’). A summary
of options are included below.
−−bare, −b
Almost the same as −−libs _and_ −−err, except that it outputs the paths of the shared libraries separated by only a space, instead of a newline.
−−chroot=[path], −C=[path]
Simulate a chroot into [path]. Almost the same as −−check−area
−−check−area=[path], −c=[path]
Skip every file outside [path]. Useful if you want to check for bad symlinks in a virtual host.
−−err, −e
Outputs everything to STDERR except the final results, they’ll be printed to STDOUT. This way you can redirect the output, even pass it to a program, while examining the status.
−−exclude=[files], −x=[file]
A colon separated list of files to exclude from checking.
−−force=[ln], −f=[ln]
Force use of the [ln] language.
−−help, −h
Show summary of options.
−−libs, −l
Output only the file list, omit any status messages.
−−license, −L
Display license.
−−nohup, −n
Ignore the HUP signal.
−−recursive, −R
Operate in recursive mode.
−−report, −r
The verbose mode, also the default.
−−stat=[l], −s=[l]
Display some exciting statistics. An optional [l] argument sets the detail level.
−−status=[b], −S=[b]
Turns status messages on or off. Values for [b] can be one of the following: on, off, yes, no, true, false, 1, 0.
−−quiet, −q
Do not output anything. Except the list of libraries at the end.
−−version, −v
Show version of program.
