That's very common, and often unavoidable. Often updated versions need more
libraries to support some new features or to implement existing features in
a better or more reliable way. (This is what happened here, and also
commonly happens with KDE updates.) Sometimes a private copy of a library
gets replaced by the system library. And sometimes dependencies were simply
forgotten and need to be added in updates.
