And if there was an upgrade to a major C/C++ library, you may find a
message that
running processes using those libraries will be running on the older

Only newly started processes invoke the new versions. So if a library bug
is causing you
a current problem, init itself or kernel-space code may need to be
reloaded. So a reboot.
