More space needed for my PPA KDE Photo Applications for GTK Ubuntu

Asked by Pascal Mons

I am trying to build kphotoalbum for GTK Ubuntu on the latest 3 platforms : Trusty, Utopic and Vivid, in my PPA

https://launchpad.net/~anton+/+archive/ubuntu/kde-photo-apps

I need to build for this goal digikam which I succeed today, however when trying to upload some dependencies for kphotoalbum I got this message from launchpad :

PPA exceeded its size limit (2097.00 of 2048.00 MiB)

Keeping in mid that I didn't try to upload kphotoalbum yet ...
This is quite unnerving, as yesterday when some build failed I had to delete the entire digikam packages for all platforms.

I have the impression that all builds from earlier versions (of the packages) are kept and actually use the allocated 2 GiB. Then at anytime the size of the archive can grow without notice. Yesterday I had to delete all the packages for digikam, wait a full one day for the space to be re-allocated and build it again today.

In order to proceed I will need I think 2 GiB in additional space. As well I would like that previous versions builds be deleted for good from this space.

[Side Note]: I've seen that yesterday Ubuntu did build digikam for vivid, however to me it's not usable, as the dev packages are not build.

Is it so difficult and lengthy to get an additional 2 GiB in a PPA ?

Done, but that was hardly "lengthy".

OK. Well that is true as it was less than 24 hours. I thought my question had been forgotten.
Thank you very much, this will allow me to work uploads to this PPA without delays.
