Upload Magento 1 Extension to Marketplace

Question

I'm uploading a Magento 1 extension to the Marketplace and I get the following error.

I included the "package.xml" file in the root of my directory and got that error.

It was possible to get the approval from Magento and actually have the extension published if I upload a .tgz with only the package.xml file inside, but I'm never asked for the actual code of my extension.

What is it supposed to be inside the package .tgz file?

You need to create this with the help of Magento

System > Magento Connect > Package Extensions
