Summary0012882: Preflight Verifier sometimes doesnt check image file exists
DescriptionSometime, the preflight checker doesnt check whether image files exist
Even when "check again" is pressed, it doesnt detects missing files
Steps To ReproduceI'm not sure of the exact serie of action, since sometimes its ok, sometime its not.

Issue arose as i had collected_for_output and then renamed the 'images' folder into "images_ok" so as to create a light PDF without images.

 steps to reproduce :

- create sla with one image
- collect for output to "collect" folder
- goto OS file manager and rename collect/image image.bak
- back to scribus, use preflight verifier : no speficic warning is issued.

Notes :
- this happens even when the "image cache" option is disabled in application preferences.
- after 2 minutes, scribus discovers that things have changed and refreshes the display (showing an empty image frame) and after this, the checker also detects that the image file is missing.

It all happens as if scribus checks some memory cached data about the image files, rather than the real files themselves.
That's fine for the CPU, but the preflight checker should refresh this cache or check the real files (and at least, for sure, when "check again" button is pressed)

Since we've discovered through this bug that PV updates itself then we can perhaps easier to implement 0009528 ?
