	We were about to set up a chrooted environment for telnet.  So
	we needed  to set  up a fully  functional mini-system  in that
	directory.  It was easy to  select the programs, that the user
	needed (and we  wanted to allow him to need  ;), the hard work
	came, when we had to copy the shared libraries.

	Examining each and  every binary seemed to be  a huge work. So
	we  decided to cheat  a bit.  This cheat  is dep.pl.  It scans
	through a set  of files, using ldd, parses  the output, and in
	the end,  generates a report.   Or, if you wish,  outputs only
	the  filenames of  the shared  libs,  that at  least one  file
	depends on, one on a line. Simple enough?  It is now very easy
	to select which libraries to copy to the virtual host...
