If you got sudo, sure
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /usr/lib

There ma, I did it βΊοΈ.
You forgot math.h
And glibc.
And liboutofhere
No libs on my system, only leftists allowed π€π€π€
Having maintained Linux systems for over a decade, I instantly distrust anyone who claims they understand Linux regardless of what they say next.
I have 20 years of Linux experience. I tell people 'I know a few things.'
Would never say I know everything or understand everything though.
Just like an xkcd comic I expect to see someone reply that has 30 years experience or something.
I recently tried to compile an Raspberry pi image. I have no idea what to do when an error occurs. And I am a software developer who should at least have an idea. However goggle helps
Name em?
find / -type f -perm -a=x -exec ldd {} 2>/dev/null \;
It solves the problem but you get several megabytes of output, better pipe that into a file and do some filtering and finish with sort -u

Why would you want dynamic linking? Afraid you will change your mind?
This seems really cool!
But dynamic linking saves space AFAIK
It also makes updating easier. When a lib has a bug it can be fixed by updating one package. If every application on your system was statically linked, each one of these would have to be updated individually.
But then you definitely wouldn't have errors with different apps requiring different versions of the same library.

That's why libfoo.so.1.2.3, libfoo.so.1.2.4, libfoo.so.1.3.9, etc. exist. Flatpak also exists. Just link to a specific version of a freedesktop.org Runtime.
But dynamic linking saves space AFAIK
Yes, it does and while I'm not a pedant about saving every possible byte in a time of terabyte SSDs, static linking everything is just insanely wasteful.
Why would you want dynamic linking?
Because static linking everything sucks.
isn't that just flatpak with extra steps
Nice try, FBI
thats the spirit
pkg-config --list-all
The bar is too low
Praise be pkg-config
Why is Lib capitalized when Linux is case sensitive and Lib files aren't a thing?
libass
libcaca
liboobs
I doubted. I checked. Check passed.
$ sudo apt search liboobs

I would apt purge that if I were you.
That would be just me.

Reminds me of an interview i was in. I was like, this isn't even in my job description... 7 interviews later. Come to find out, they were HAND DEPLOYING Linux servers to try to scale for double of their user base. I feel like I dodged a bullet.

ls -R /usr/lib/
Easy
I named most of them Marlin Jr, and Coral Jr, but I guess we can name one of them Nemo.

We're going to be here a while.
We clearly need a "Periodic Table Song", but for libs. π
