-How to get to know which shared libraries Linux binaries need, and where

-On PowerPC ports, the

-will install the needed libraries.
-If you are on other platforms, or this doesn't supply you with all

-.It
-You have access to a Linux system.
-In this case you can temporarily install the binary there, see what
-shared libraries it needs, and copy them to your

-system.
-Example: you have just ftp-ed the Linux binary of Doom.
-Put it on the Linux system you have access to, and check which shared libraries it
-needs by running
