Description:
I think namcap should also be able to detect if a shell script is requiring any programms.

I had a script which was running 'calc' (among other things), but when I set calc as dependency, namcap said
W: Dependency included and not needed ('calc').

namcap 3.1-1
This task depends upon

This is frankly not feasible except for the most trivial of cases, like shebang lines. (Namcap already does those.) The occasional false-positive warning will happen.

Unless you have another trivial case that Namcap doesn't cover or you have a brilliant way of accomplishing it more generally, there isn't much that can be done.
