  1. I think it is worse than what you describe. If you don't reboot your system and open a new application it will most likely use the newer files. If you are running something from a desktop environment now you have a mix of old and new versions running at the same time. When the program communicates with the desktop environment it may use messages the DE doesn't understand. You can end up with a lot of weird behavior. It really is best to restart fairly quickly after an update. If you want to get work done don't actually install the updates until you are ready. If your program starts subprocesses this is REALLY important since newer processes it spawns will then use the new versions and you are now mixing old and new in your workflow without even realizing it.
