It is available at http://dufflebunk.homeip.net/smgl/findLibDepends2.sh

Run: find LibDepends.sh [-n recursion] [-q] [spell [spell] ...]
Default recursion is 2, explicit depends only.
Default spell list is all installed spells.
Add -q to surpress the progress output.

I believe at one point Andrew took the logic from the script and put it
into prometheus, I'm not sure though.

It is fairly slow to run, a 'gaze from' is needed for every library each
elf in a spell needs. If two binaries need libfoo.so it will run gaze
from libfoo.so twice, so it's not very optimized.
