like I say not sure how useful it is but its certainly useful, take a look at the likes of gtk if you want a birds nest (no surprise there!)

example usage:
sh dependencies.sh /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so img.png

you'd need graphvis installed

does it work for arm binaries on a x86 host ?

like a charm... - wait I lied had my binaries mixed up - now I've gles emulation working on the pc I'm tending to dev a lot on the pc and then recompile for arm for occasional testing and release...

I just looked at graphvis which is required by the script, if you really wanted you could probably get it running on the pandi without too much drama

-edit-
just had another thought

arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-readelf is in the tool chain - if you modify the script to use that then you should be able to see arm dependencies on pc...
