Plot ELF library dependencies using graphviz.
ELF libraries declare dependencies on other ELF libraries. This tool extracts these dependencies using objdump and writes a dot-based representation of the dependency graph to stdout. This output can then be piped into graphviz's dot tool for conversion to svg or pdf etc.
An example of the output from this tool:
The same example, but simplified by a transitive reduction from graphviz's tred tool:
