man dep.pl (Commandes) - a script to check dependencies

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.
