I do not have a solid scenario to say your solution is wrong, but it sounds like you are naming files by their contents. In the tex world, we insert files by names and if we insert image1 and image2, we are inserting two different files even if their contents are identical now. When image2 is changed, it is expected that image1 stays intact. Unless you are md5'ing file names, not the contents... Bo
