I'm trying to upload packages to my PPA for the first time.

I want to use the PPA for customized versions of the OpenStack Compute (nova) project, so I tried to do a test by uploading packages corresponding to the bexar release of this project (lp:nova/bexar), with a new version number and changelog entry. I signed the source packages using my OpenGPG key, which has been uploaded to the ubuntu keyserver:

$ dch -v 2011.1-0ubuntu2-isi1 -D lucid "ISI bexar build #1"
$ dpkg-buildpackage -s -rfakeroot -tc -D -k4C8A14AB

When I tried to upload the files to the repository, it seemed to work (real email obscured):

$ dput ppa:lorinh/ppa nova_2011.2~bzr663-1isi1_source.changes

Uploading to ppa (via ftp to ppa.launchpad.net):
  Uploading nova_2011.2~bzr663-1isi1.dsc: done.
  Uploading nova_2011.2~bzr663-1isi1.tar.gz: done.      
  Uploading nova_2011.2~bzr663-1isi1_source.changes: done.

However, the packages aren't listed on my PPA page. If I try to upload again, I get the error:

$ dput ppa:lorinh/ppa nova_2011.2~bzr663-1isi1_source.changes 
Package has already been uploaded to ppa on ppa.launchpad.net
Nothing more to do for nova_2011.2~bzr663-1isi1_source.changes

Am I supposed to do something next? How do I track down what wrong? As of this writing, it's been a day and a half since I've done the upload.
