ldd equivalent on android

Thanks to android developers. My feature request was implemented :) Now we have ndk-depends, a tool that allows to troubleshoot dependencies.

Edit: it doesn't do full symbol resolution though. E.g. if you build against Android-14 and try to use methods that didn't exist in old Androids, then this tool won't list missing symbols. This part was left as a TODO in ndk-depends.


If you don't have the NDK try doing:

readelf --dynamic filename | grep NEEDED

to display the dynamic libraries for an elf binary.
