Installing new dependencies when updating a package

[Yukai Chou]

I encountered a similar case today, when updating minted from r72368
to r72375 [1].

r72375 adds a "latexminted" user-level executable, but a regular "sudo
tlmgr update --all" failed in installing the executable. I have to run
    sudo tlmgr install --reinstall minted
to have "minted.universal-darwin" installed.
