With GNU/Linux, and libraries all being in directories searched by
default by both the link editor and the runtime linker, the problems
are fairly limited. IIRC Debian requires that you link directly against
all libraries that you require directly.
The problems start as soon as you link (directly or indirectly) against
libraries in directories not searched by default. IOW: typically
anything not provided by a properly packaged Debian package, installed
by the user or the system maintainer.
Cheers,
Ralf
