Do we have a reason to believe that the sources will be in the same place for the next session? My Emacs sessions end only when the system goes down (which happens once in a blue moon). If the user brings the sources from outside, she might as well change the location in between.
On some OS:es you have to reboot sometimes. Upgrading, security fixes ...But there is another difficulty too. If the user happens to give the wrong answer when prompting for the directory then it is hard to find out how to change it. Maybe there should be a simple sanity check? This could be at the prompting or (better I believe) when trying to access the sources. Then a new prompt could be issued.
