Hi,
You should put the package in home/config/packages. If there is a
problem with it, the package manager will tell you using a BNotification or an error window. You can also check the syslog to see when it becomes
active.

Thanks that worked :). Problem now are that it says the package are not installable. The syslog don't say anyting.

This are the .packinfo file. I couldn't use 1.1.0 it said it hade the wrong versioning.

This are how I'm making the package.
        mkdir -p 'VMW Add-Ons/apps/Vmware'
        mkdir -p 'VMW Add-Ons/add-ons/input_server/filters'

cp vmwaddons/objects.x86-gcc4-debug/vmwaddons 'VMW Add-Ons/apps/Vmware' cp vmwmouse/objects.x86-gcc4-debug/vmwmouse 'VMW Add-Ons/add-ons/input_server/filters'
        cp readme.txt 'VMW Add-Ons'
        cp .PackageInfo 'VMW Add-Ons'

        package create -C 'VMW Add-Ons' VMwareAddons.hpkg
        cp VMwareAddons.hpkg VMwareAddons-1.1.0-x86.hpkg
        rm VMwareAddons.hpkg
