Thank you (and everyone else here) for a warm welcoming!

Hmm, interesting. Do you need to scan some directory tree to find
symbols not defined within such tree?
Actually scanelf and symlookup have noticeable overlap of
functionality. Some time ago I though about possible merge of two
projects, but interfaces and functionality are somewhat different.
Maybe common library will do the job. What actually symlookup does
is tree traversing using fts and dig into each so/ar to look for
user provided symbol. The devil is in details: regexps may be used,
it can also find ebuild or rpm holding matched files, build map of
all symbols in the system and so on.
Best regards,
Andrew Savchenko
