shows a way of finding out any libraries that executables link to, where there are no references to what's in the library.
ECL would appear to have 3 in the current version of Sage, though it is reduced to 1 in the latest git snapshot of ECL I downloaded yesterday:
drkirkby@hawk:~/ecl$ ldd -r -u build/bin/ecl libecl.so => build/libecl.so libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2 libsocket.so.1 => /lib/libsocket.so.1 libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 libintl.so.1 => /lib/libintl.so.1 libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1 libgmp.so.10 => /usr/local/gcc-4.5.0/lib/libgmp.so.10 libmp.so.2 => /lib/libmp.so.2 libmd.so.1 => /lib/libmd.so.1 libscf.so.1 => /lib/libscf.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/local/gcc-4.5.0/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 libuutil.so.1 => /lib/libuutil.so.1 libgen.so.1 => /lib/libgen.so.1 libsmbios.so.1 => /usr/lib/libsmbios.so.1 unused object=/lib/libintl.so.1
Note the unused library
unused object=/lib/libintl.so.1
ECL should only link to these libraries if it needs them, which I expect it does with some options. There were no options given to configure here.
