Unable to cancel a download that is queued - part 2
ref: #1727 (closed)
- F-Droid version (in the About screen): 1.17
- F-Droid privileged extension version (if installed): Nope
What did you do? (clear steps if possible)
- Have updates or press install to multiple apps
- Change your mind or decide to download later/on Wi-Fi/etc
- Press the X icon for a queued download
What did you expect to see?
- Queued download canceled (if app was queued to install it would disappear, if it was an update it would stay)
What did you see instead?
- Nothing happens, apps are still downloaded one after another

It seems that the queued downloads are removed from the queue, but the UI is not properly updated.
Not true at the moment, because the apps whose X icon I pressed would still be eventually downloaded when their turn comes
The only thing that you can cancel is "the current download", but, while the updates/apps are listed alphabetically in the Updates tab, they are downloaded "at random" so you then have to play a little game of "Pop Goes the Weasel" to cancel the next app that will start downloading next, maybe it's higher or lower in the list
