When the software center enter the 'applying changes' stage you cannot
cancel the install because it could potential break your system. For
small applications I believe very few packages have to be downloaded so
it downloads them very quickly.
I personally think you might also be testing by uninstalling an app and
then reinstalling it for that case the already downloaded application is
available to software center hence it does not download anything new.

Title:
Week 33- software centre does not show cancel button
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Week 33 - Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal with ppa:timo-jyrinki/prerelease with
Radeon card
Issue :- Software centre does not display the cross button (cancel button)
which is normally shown next to the progress bar when an installation is in
progress.
For example:- While installing a big size application like "Wesnoth", cancel
button is seen. While installing any other application, say "PokerTH", the
cancel button is not seen.
See screenshot - shows the progress bar with no cancel button next to
it.
Action:
- Open software centre
- Choose some free application
- Install the application by clicking on install
- Wait until the "In Progress" appears in the toplevel toolbar of s-c
- Click on the "In Progress" button in the toolbar, this will show the
progress bar with a cross button next to it
- Check for "cancel" button of the install of the application next to the
progress bar
Does the display of cancel button depend on size/type of application
being installed?
