It's in the libc-bin package, here:

$ apt-file search /usr/bin/ldd
fakechroot: /usr/bin/ldd.fakechroot
libc-bin: /usr/bin/ldd
pax-utils: /usr/bin/lddtree

Used thus:

$ ldd /bin/bash
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xb778f000)
        libtinfo.so.5 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5 (0xb7756000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libdl.so.2 (0xb7752000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xb75ed000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7790000)

Last time I used it for real was to find out which variant of libcurses
an app was using.
