Research direction

Start with the daemon recheck path and the source set produced by the most recent check command. Reproduce the case where a new file is added to an existing package, then verify that recheck recomputes the files instead of reusing the previous set.

Description

topic-daemon

Currently recheck just reuses the exact set of sources computed by the most recent check command. But that's incorrect if you add a new file to an existing package, for example.
