So I have installed dput-ng over dput to avoid this problem (and others
yet-to-be-found) issues to occur in the future.

I started using dput after reading the "Chapter 9. Uploading the
package" [1] of the Debian Maintainer guide [2]. It tells that the
"dput" tool is now priviledged over "dupload" command. Maybe we should
be more specific and recommend "dput-ng" as a more newcomer-friendly
alternative to dput on this page?
