Summary:

I'm starting with an app that has foo.png as a resource, and the app is installed (either in the simulator or on the device). If I delete foo.png, do a clean build, etc., and install, then it still shows up in the bundle on the simulator or device. I know the file isn't in the bundle before copying to the simulator or device.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create an empty project
2. Add an image file (such as foo.png)
3. Build & Run either on the Simulator or a device
4. Stop the running target
5. Delete your image from the project (you can move it to trash, too)
6. Clean all targets
7. Build & Run again on the same destination as before
8. Check out YourApplication.app's contents

Expected Results:

The image you added before should be removed.

Actual Results:

Actially, it is still there.

Regression:

It happens on all Xcode versions, all iOS SDK versions, all OS X versions and all iOS versions.

Notes:

If I update my application through iTunes using an ad hoc build I will see that my .app bundle will be replaced completely and old resources, such as the foo.png file described in the summary, will be removed.
