If you want those dependant programs to use the new library, yes. It's
not required though. When you upgrade a port, portupgrade sticks its
old shared libraries in /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg so old binaries still
run. It's up to you to manually clean it out occasionally (I just
checked and mine is 400MB, with files going back to 1999 :)
