Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dput

(1) $ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
Release:        10.04

(2) $ apt-cache policy dput
dput:
  Installed: 0.9.5.1ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.9.5.1ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.9.5.1ubuntu1 0
        500 http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/ubuntu/ lucid/main 
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

(3) When using dput to upload a package to a LaunchPad PPA, it would be
helpful if the dput command could check the series (Lucid, Karmic,
Hardy, etc) and avoid wasting time and bandwidth on a package that will
be rejected immediately.  There may be other checks that could be moved
forward to this point in the process.

(4) at present, you eventually get an email message saying the upload
was rejected.
