ldd: Display shared library dependencies of a binary.
$ ldd ${path-to-binary}
try on your machine
The command "ldd" stands for "list dynamic dependencies", and it is used to display the shared libraries required by a binary executable or a shared object file.
The expression "${path-to-binary}" represents the path to the binary file whose dependencies you want to list.
So, when you run the command "ldd ${path-to-binary}", it will output a list of the shared libraries that the specified binary file depends on. This can be helpful to verify if all the required libraries are present and properly linked, or to troubleshoot any dependency-related issues.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
