Uploaded a package to PPA but it's not showing and no email from Launchpad

Question

I uploaded a package to my PPA over three hours ago, with no response from Launchpad.

Anecdotally, I have had upload emails take over five hours before. — Oli, Sep 05 '12 at 15:19

According to Dobey in #launchpad, if you do not get a response via e-mail, the package doesn't show up in your PPA, and everything looks to be okay; then it's likely the GPG key you signed the package with isn't in Launchpad. Add you GPG key to Launchpad and re-upload the package.

If you get the message that the package is already uploaded, delete the *source.ppa.upload file, or add the -f flag to dput.

Be sure that that the version is greater than all previous versions of the same package. See this reference for information on how versions are ordered.

If this is the problem you should get a message when you try to upload, but won't get any e-mail or other result.
