Last I recall there was work being done (or done already?) to have
certain libraries/packages trigger only on major or minor version
changes (since openssl updates also provide a fun time). I do not recall
the status of this work, but it would be nice to have all of our
packages magically working after any update, with no manual intervention
by our users.
