Plan:
1. Write a Perl program with _very_ simple dependency checking.
2. Make notes on ldconfig
3. Make notes on various packages, e.g. OpenSSL

Note about /sbin/ldconfig:
The ldconfig man page (ldconfig(8) states that "ldconfig ignores symbolic links
when scanning for libraries." What does this mean?
Stowing OpenSSL
I ( Troy Will April 2009 ) did a ./config --prefix=/usr/local shared && make &&
make install of OpenSSL. With Stow could not find the shared libraries with
ldconfig -v. Installing directly without Stow, I was able to find the shared
libraries with ldconfig -v.
