Dynamic objects information

From time to time, it is useful to inspect some binary files in order to get some interesting information as the objects and libraries, the binary is expecting to find when it gets loaded.

We can do this with ldd

$ ldd /bin/ls
/bin/ls:
        libutil.so.7 => /lib/libutil.so.7 (0x800638000)
        libncurses.so.7 => /lib/libncurses.so.7 (0x800747000)
        libc.so.7 => /lib/libc.so.7 (0x800893000)
