The Mender Client used to check if the downloaded artifact was already installed in the past. However, this check was removed in mendersoftware/mender@1fb6223 as it prevents the use of the "Force update" option, allowing a device to take part in the same deployment twice. Today, all the "already-installed" logic is performed in the backend.
