Hi, that's not untrue, but anyway not a good advice. It seldom does cause issues, even not on a rolling release model distro, let alone for the release model approach of the OP's distro. Assumed something should be fishy, closing and opening an app, after an upgrade with a running user session likely would fix issues. Assumed switching to the new version anyway is wanted already after the upgrade, it doesn't harm to close the app before upgrading, but it's not necessarily required to do this. Assumed after closing and opening fishy apps, there still should be issues, logging out and in, IOW restarting the user session most likely solves the issues. If even this shouldn't solve it, then a reboot does. However, usually no such steps are required, usually everything should keep on working without issues. That logging out and in could be required more likely should be expected for a rolling release, not for Debian Jessie. Keep in mind that package management often is done by graphical front ends. They are aimed to be used by a user, while running a user session. Actually a reboot never should be required, with a few exceptions, usually restarting some software should solve issues, this also means, that there usually is no need to stop a user session or even just to close all apps, before upgrading. That weirdness could happen, if an install is upgraded by running a user session is very, very unlikely, barely possible.
