CI: remote build tests time out when the build queue is busy
Metadata
Current evaluation
CI remote-build tests timed out on busy Launchpad queue; proposed amd64-only builds, longer timeout, weekly scheduling. All three appear implemented via PRs #1573, #1632, #1705.
Suggested action: close resolved
Reason: All three requested fixes are present in the current codebase: tests/spread/smoketests/remote-build/task.yaml limits architectures to amd64 and sets kill-timeout: 30m, and .github/workflows/spread-manual.yaml runs remote-build on a schedule rather than every PR. Merged PRs #1573, #1632, and #1705 correspond to the amd64 restriction, weekly scheduling, and timeout extension respectively.

keep open | CI remote build tests time out when Launchpad's build queue is busy. Three fixes requested: limit to amd64, extend build time, move to weekly scheduled test. Two of three are done in the repo (amd64 limit in #1573, weekly move in #1632); only the build-time extension remains unverified. | |
