Rebuild MSI if only updated files

I have a setup where I'm building the MSI along with a CAB containing all the files. I also need to build different MSIs for different languages. I have already built all of them and they all share the same CAB file.

Recently I updated a couple of files and rebuilt one of the MSIs (which also rebuilt the CAB file).

Do I need to rebuild every MSI as well?

Yes, because the MSI contains details about the files that will be installed, such as file size, version, file hash. These need to match with the files being installed.
