[L2Ork-dev] Linux compile-time dependencies

[Albert Graef]

dpkg-shlibdeps handles this in the Debian package building system. But all
you can do automatically is check for linkage against shared libs and then
determine the packages that provide them, which is exactly what
dpkg-shlibdeps does. There may be other things a package depends on
(scripts and executables, etc.) and it would amount to solving the infamous
halting problem (with regards from Turing) to find them all. :)
