Ok, I've tried your code and you've forgotten to modify your generated
.apspec file. (Another reason you should use the GUI tool instead.. I
seem to be nagging about this in every mail now ;-)

First warning:
FAIL: Could not locate skeleton package for '@whatever.you/need'

Remove the "require @whatever.you/need" line

You also had nothing in the [imports] section, which effectively means
your package will be empty.

[BuildPrepare] section must install stuff to $build_root, nothing else.

Also, the installExe function should have "usr/bin/*" as argument, not
"bin/*".. (I was confused by this too)

Working .apspec attached
