Found [Need auditwheel-like utility for other platforms - #4 by njs](https://discuss.python.org/t/need-auditwheel-like-utility-for-other-platforms/2028/4) for Windows. So I think similar approach can be used on Linux for providing libraries that are needed at runtime but not built via C/CPP extensions in Python packaging script. Please advise.
