This is possible. You probably need to recheck your system one more time.
For example let's have 3 libs. Lib A needs Lib B and Lib B needs Lib C.
If Lib C vanishes and Lib A is not linked with it for the first run
everything would be fine. But if during the run Lib B gets upgraded and
old version vanishes Lib A gets broken.
