   How do you use slackpkg to upgrade a package along with   
   any libraries that the upgraded package may also need?   
      In particular, I have a three-year-old -current64   
   from November 2021 installed, which is using firefox 91.3.   
   But now, when started, firefox says some features may stop   
   working January 15, 2025, and "volunteers" to upgrade for me.   
      But I'm concerned that the upgraded firefox may also   
   need some libraries upgraded, and that it won't work if   
   I just let mozilla automatically upgrade firefox for me.   
   But I'm also not seeing how to identify and upgrade   
   any such needed libraries with slackpkg (and haven't   
   been able to google -options to do that).   
      
      And finally, if I identify and upgrade those libraries   
   along with firefox, what about any other older installed   
   packages that still need the older libraries? Is there   
   a way to keep both the newer libraries for firefox,   
   and the older versions for everything else?   
      From what very little I know, the installed libraries   
   are usually "addressed" by symlinks library-->library.version,   
   so both old and new libraries could co-exist, but programs   
   using them would only see the version pointed to by the   
   symlink. Is that right? How could I deal with that?   
   Thanks.
