Ping!
Can anyone of the bitbake gurus lease give a feedback here?

Bitbake has no idea that the PV has changed and that it needs to ignore
the cache value and reparse the metadata for that file. The similar
example is when autorev is used with a source control system. You can
can see the code for this in lib/bb/fetch2/__init__.py in get_autorev().
In summary, if you set __BB_DONT_CACHE = "1" in your recipe, I think it
will do what you expect, at the cost that it will reparse the recipe
every time (which it has to in case PV changes).
Cheers,
Richard

This solution seems to work. :)
