Depends. Most libs at least have updates fixing bugs and security issues. But for D2 there's another thing: Neither the language nor the standard lib are stable, so a lib that hasn't been maintained for some time probably doesn't even compile anymore - and this won't change in the near future (especially for the standard lib).
