recompilation
Translating source again
Recompilation is compiling something again—typically software source code that must be converted anew into executable form.
Code changes, system updates, or platform migrations often require recompilation: The patch requires recompilation of the kernel.
The word applies beyond computing to any repeated act of compilation: recompilation of census data.
