The simplest solution to fixing a partially-uploaded package is to make
sure you're using the FTP protocol in dput instead of the HTTP protocol.
The program that processes the upload queue will wait for the .dsc file
to appear in the file transfer area (the .dsc is always the last file
uploaded by dput) and will not normally remove the rest of the package
files until it appears. When dput uses FTP, it will take a 403 (caused
by a permission problem when replacing an existing file) and proceed to
the next file, whereas when it uses HTTP it just gives up.
