+lddsafe (safe replacement for ldd)
+
+lddsafe prints shared library dependencies for executables and shared
+libraries. However, it uses objdump instead of loading the program,
+hence avoiding the security problems of ldd. lddsafe also includes
+nonrecursive mode (-n option), which lists direct dependencies only.
