[OE-core] Why doesn't my package rebuild

Sort of as a follow up to my problem of yesterday, I've run into
a problem - I have a simple recipe which only unpacks a source tarball
and then installs it - no other steps are listed or required.  The recipe
also does not have an explicit PR value and I'm not running a PR server.

If I have the package built, then change the tarball and the checksums
in the recipe itself, it does not get rebuilt :-(  I have to force it
using cleansstate.

This setup seems to work fine for my other recipes.  I just tried it
with two nearly identical recipes.  I made similar changes in both
recipes/files - one was rebuilt, the other not.

How can I diagnose this?  It's a private recipe (no use to anyone but me)
so I'm not going to send it to the list but I can gladly share it with
anyone who might be able to help.

Thanks
