Generally you don't need to re-configure or re-compile but if the dependent library changed some public API that clients like us rely on, asterisk may behave very badly if if the steps aren't re-run. As for re-start, you do need to re-start. The operating system takes care of loading dependent libraries that aren't actually asterisk modules and they are usually held in memory until the process using them ends. If they weren't and you did a package update to replace a shared library, every process using it would crash.</div><div> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div></div>3.
