Default Re: .DEF files upgd importance

It depends.

*.def file changes are required for some specific fixes - e.g. there have been quite a few RTSP fixes that require changes. If you don't need the fix, then it doesn't really matter if you upgrade them or not.

If you've got any custom changes - e.g. for FTP - then you need to make the changes in the new files if you are upgrading them. That's the reason they don't do it automatically.

Be aware that if you do a major version upgrade, any custom changes are not carried forward. Can catch you out.
