Package: dupload
Version: 2.6.4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello,

I recently tried to upload a new release of my nted package to
mentors.debian.net. While the upload didn't report any error my package
won't appear on mentors.debian.net.

I tried several times, using this command line:
$ dupload -f -t mentors debian/dists/unstable/nted_0.26.1-1_i386.changes

No error reported. I finaly decided to have a look at the FTP server.
And I saw that all my package files but the .changes were present there.
The .changes was in the "oldchanges" directory with size = 0.

I then tried to upload the .changes file with a different name using
FTP. It appeared with the correct size. Then I renamed it to its correct
name (nted_0.26.1-1_i386.changes) and my package was suddenly
proccessed.

I suggest to slightly modify dupload so that the .changes file is first
uploaded with its name changed (say: .changes.tmp) and renamed
afterward. This to ensure the complete upload before starting the
processing.

Thanks in advance.

Gilles.
