Usage information.
.SH NOTES
The standard version of
.B ldd
comes with glibc2.
Libc5 came with an older version, still present
on some systems.
The long options are not supported by the libc5 version.
On the other hand, the glibc2 version does not support
.B \-V
and only has the equivalent
.BR \-\-version .
.LP
The libc5 version of this program will use the name of a library given
on the command line as-is when it contains a \(aq/\(aq; otherwise it
searches for the library in the standard locations.
To run it
on a shared library in the current directory, prefix the name with "./".
