Yes, you're missing the .changes file. The normal procedure for a
arch-specific upload it this:
        1. cd <package>-<version>
        2. dpkg-buildpackage -B -m"Your Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
        4. cd ..
        4. dupload --to master ../<package>_<version>_<arch>.changes

The -B tells dpkg-buildpackage not to build source, and not to build
architecture independent packages.
