If there's a chain of dependencies (libraries depending on other libraries), a single process might end up with different versions of the same library in it's memory. That's not going to work, since the interface/API of the library is typically not versioned.

True, but shouldn't this issue already show up when a developer builds/tests the application on their own machine?
