I don't know. Does the apps work?
Yes, I think they do work. According to my understanding, the apps compiled before the updates are using the old libraries, and the apps compiled after the update should utilize the new libraries. As long as I don't remove the old libraries, all apps should work fine. I was just curious to know whether I should recompile all apps so that they may work better by using the new libraries. Or will they? :)
