Only things that are linked statically, which is generally a minority of applications. $ for file in `find /usr/local -type f`; do case `/usr/bin/file $file` in *dynamically*) dynamic=$(($dynamic + 1)) ; echo $file ;; *statically*) static=$(($static + 1)) ; echo $file ;; esac done $ echo "static: $static dynamic: $dynamic" static: 9 dynamic: 916 Please don't be needlessly alarmist.
