For run-time dependencies (dynamic link libraries) that's quite easy to do, unless they use delayed-loading *and* obfuscation which, being free applications, is highly unlikely. If you are interested on transitive dependencies, the libraries are closed and they use certain techniques, the complexity grows two or three orders of magnitude unless there is credible documentation that provides the info, but those techniques are not used often.
