I have gone through a lot of steps in preparation of the actual packaging (see 8 steps below). I successfully uploaded the .changes file to Launchpad. dput ppa:lafeber-dumoleyn/ubuntu-handleiding12.04 mijn-ubuntu-handleiding_0.1-1_amd64.changes Terminal output: Successfully uploaded packages. But on https://launchpad.net/myname/+archive/ubuntu-handleiding12.04 I still see: This PPA does not contain any packages yet. Any idea why?

I used the commands debuild and dh-make to create the package. If you need any further information from me, please let me know.

Done so far:

1. Install software for package building: $ sudo apt-get install packaging-dev and $ sudo apt-get install build-essential and sudo apt-get install dh-make

2. Create GPG key

3. Set up pbuilder (allows you to build packages locally on your machine, chroot environment)

pbuilder-dist precise create

4. Configure your system to work with Launchpad

 *

   Upload gpg key + SSH key

 *

   Configure Bazaar

 *

   Configure your shell .bashrc: DEBFULLNAME + DEBEMAIL

5. Extract Debian: python-distutils-extra_2.29-1.debian.tar.gz > /home/ppa/debian

6. Build package

 *

   pbuilder or debuild? *debuild* creates all the files necessary for
   uploading a Debian package.

 *

   Run the command dh-make providing the package name, version number,
   and path to the (upstream) tarball

 *

   Edit changelog, control, copyright files

7. Launchpad: create new PPA then activate PPA on your profile page

 *

   bzr push lp:~my_lp_name/ppa_name or on profile page: create a new PPA

 *

   Enter URL name, display name, description then click button Activate

8. Upload mijn-ubuntu-handleiding*.changes to my_PPA on Launchpad

Successfully uploaded packages. On Launchpad: This PPA does not contain any packages yet.
