I've been consistently unable to upload tarballs for a PPA, dput gets stuck in the very last kB:

  Uploading chromium-browser_114.0.5735.133.orig.tar.xz: 1533721k/1533722k

Hi Nathan, can you try using sftp instead of ftp, if you are having issues with it and let us know if that helped?

[Nathan Teodosio (nteodosio)]

Hi Guruprasad,

The last time I tried this my Internet connection was considerably
faster and I didn't encounter the problem.

For the record this is what I have in ~/.dput.cf, so I don't know why it
is using FTP.
