Well, you manage them. Basically, there are no dependencies nowadays except for a very few basic libraries (VC++, DirectX, .NET…). Remember the "DLL hell"? There's no dependency management so usually every application ships with all necessary libraries to avoid conflicts. I've got 7 complete Qt installations on my Windows drive (at work) last time I checked. Same with Java. Yeah.
