[GTALUG] finding out the shared object (dynamically linked libraries) use by a program

[D. Hugh Redelmeier]

Sometime you want to know what .so libraries are used by a program.

Let's say that the program's binary is in /bin/prog.
	$ ldd /bin/prog
will do the trick.  Except it doesn't capture everything.  Sometimes
you need to examine the running program.

Let's say you wish to find out what process 123 has loaded at this time.
	$ pmap 123 -p
or
	$ lsof -p 123
(The -p in each command means something different.)
In each case, look for lines with the string ".so".
