Cancel PPA build?

Asked by Mathilda Young

I noticed an issue in what I uploaded and was being build on an architecture and failed. Now with the second build, I want to cancel that (it is currently waiting building) so the builders don't waste time making a failing build.

It looks like build is finished by now, so closing.

I would still like to know if it is possible to cancel a build and how to do it.

It is not possible to cancel an in-progress build (except by asking an administrator to manually kill the process on the buildd).

It is not possible to outright cancel a pending build, but if you have uploaded a new version of the package, before a pending build for the older version begins, the older build will be skipped.

Thanks Max Bowsher, that solved my question.
