Lint task executions with @nx/eslint:lint receive cache hits after relevant packages updated (e.g. angular-eslint)

[minijus]

Current Behavior

Today, running lint tasks after relevant package updates (e.g. angular-eslint, typescript-eslint) receive cache hits. This results in updates being merged to main branch and issues resurface only after some time when other changes trigger cache-miss of the lint task run.

Expected Behavior

Running lint once dependencies (sometimes transitive) referenced in configs are updated should result in cache miss.
