6 Interrupting a Build

Sending a HUP signal to the dopackages* shell processes or to any make process invoked by those scripts is usually sufficient to interrupt the build. The package builds dispatched by make to the client machines will clean themselves up after a few minutes (check with ps x until they all go away). The following command usually does the trick:

% killall -HUP sh ssh make

Remove the ${arch}/lock file before trying to restart the build.
