yup. just like the title says.

I started a new map with the new version, and made a fortress. then i flooded the map when I was playing around with water. so I started another fortress on the same world, (i dont know if that might have anything to do with it)

in the new fortress, everything is fine so far, except I built a farmers workshop and added all the jobs to it, to see what I would get. They all canceled except for the processs plants to vials, which just stayed in the queue and the worker assigned to those jobs could not find work. all of the other jobs generated the cancel message.

Can you cancel the jobs manually?  Do the farmers find other things to do then?  I like it when jobs stay in the workshop queue, but if the farmers can't do it they should go back to No Job and find other work.

I did much the same thing and it took awhile for the Plant->Vial order to get cancelled but it finally got axed.  I only had one fellow assigned to farming workshop duty at that time so I think it just took him awhile to get back around to it.

mine never got cancelled. I waited a pretty nice amount of time.

And I have no problem cancelling the jobs manually, through the workshop.

I was doing this in fortress with no bags, barrels or vials, and all of the other jobs got cancelled immediately.
Then the dwarf proceeded to ignore the workshop and stand around with no job, while the 'process plants to vial' command was still in the queue

Mine all cancelled immediately from a fresh start.  I'm not sure what happened.  I don't think flooding would impact this, unless there was some kind of accessibility issue in the new fort.
