[rrd-users] Re: static linked rrdtool

[Mark Smith]

As an alternate to statically linking it, you can put the appropriate 
librarys in the chrooted sandbox.  Arguably not as secure, but it does 
work.  It depends on why you want the chroot, I guess.

You can use ldd to tell you which libraries are needed by a given 
executable:

% ldd rrdtool
         libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4001b000)
         libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40038000)
         /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

...for example...

To answer the question you actually asked, I don't know how..  I've 
never bothered to think about it.  :)
