Binary depends

[Bob Hilliard <hilliard@debian.org>]

     I have just discovered (via a bug report) that dict and dictd
depend on netbase.  (dict and dictd communicate with each other using
the TCP/IP protocol.)  Since dictd has been in debian for over four
years without declaring the dependency, this indicates that netbase is
almost universally installed! :-)

    Is there any tool, comparable to dpkg-shlibs, to determine
non-library dependencies?

Bob
