I would recommend to use dput from dput-ng instead of plain old dput, because that will catch the discrepancy between the distribution in the changelog and the changes file. It prints a nice error message explaining the problem, before the package is even uploaded. (I accidentally stumbled over that yesterday, due to sbuild -d sid but changelog having unstable in it.)
