I'm trying to figure out a way to search a system for libs installed
from sources. The idea is to clean up a mixed system-one with both
package-built and source-built programs. And use various tricky hacks
to insert the source-built libs into the package database, either RPM
or .deb.
The latter part is easy, simply build fake packages. But I'm stuck on
finding the source-built libs in the first place. I don't need a
detailed howto, but some pointers as to what tools to use would be
luverly. :)
