Debian Maintainers can only upload packages they have been explicitly
granted permission to upload. Nobody has allowed Johannes to upload
dijitso (see the current permissions at [1]), so the upload gets
rejected.
To grant DMs upload permissions, any DD can either use `dcut` from
`dput-ng` or manually write a *.dak-commands file[2] and upload it.
dak will then update the ACL and send a confirmation message by mail.
The .dak-commands file should look something like this:
+---
| Archive: ftp.debian.org
| Uploader: Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>
|
| Action: dm
| Fingerprint: ${40 hexdigits fingerprint of the DMs PGP key}
| Allow: dijitso
+---[ dparsons-20170808-2227.dak-commands ]
