where did ldd go?

2000-10-29 Thread Krzys Majewski
Erh, there  used to  be something called  ldd, right? For  finding out
which dynamic libs an executable linked against? It's gone! Where do I
get it? Where is there a map of binary names to debs? -chris

This doesn't help if it's not in your path, but:

$ dpkg -S `which ldd`
libc6: /usr/bin/ldd

Are there other signs that glibc is broken on your system?

OK thanks, I used to do this by grepping /var/lib/dpkg/info/*

Well, I don't know. I pointed  apt-get to unstable in order to install
something (xmps??),  which ended up  upgrading my libc and  some other
stuff (C++ libraries??). This  broke something else (undefined symbols
in some  X libraries  when compiling stuff).  So I  manually downgraded
libc (and hopefully  all the other things that  had been upgraded) via
ftp + dpkg.  Now I have the  stable libc again, but as  you suggest, I
may have broken something in the process. 

I've now got ldd from the ldso deb.
