How about checking for the libraries it's linked against.
> Here's what I get on my home setup:
$ ldd /usr/bin/find
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7eeb000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fee000)
Running ldd on 'home' system (in /tools/bin):
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ldd /tools/bin/find
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00246000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x0022e000)
Both files are present (and ./find executes). Because tls directory was
not present under /tools/lib:
mkdir /tools/lib/tls
ln -s /tools/lib/libc.so.6 /tools/lib/tls/libc.so.6
Still, running the same in the new system:
root:/tools/bin# ldd /tools/bin/find
/tools/bin/ldd: line 124: /tools/bin/find: No such file or directory
find cannot be checked, not to mention executed :(
Take care,
David Ciecierski
