Determine minor version of library on Linux

Question

How can I know minor version of a library on Linux.

For example on my Linux machine I have libodbc.so.2 and I need to know the exact version of the library, like 2.3.0 or 2.3.2.

Is there some Linux command that I can run on the library to get its version? I tried ./libodbc.so.2 -v but got Segmentation fault.

Answer 1

ldd should be the tool of your choice. That gives you the shared library actually linked.
