Not, not exactly.

A rebuild is not necessary.  But you do need to access the repo once
(perhaps by running "fossil dbstat") in order to cause the minor CHECK
constraint update to occur.  Rebuild will do that, but it is more work
than is actually needed.  So, there is no harm in doing a rebuild, but
it is not strictly necessary.
