It's been two weeks, but in case you're still wondering about this:

You probably have maintainer scripts (eg. prerm, postinst) in your
package. Those are not allowed with app-installer-tool, and may prevent
the package from being correctly installed and uninstalled. 

There is a separate how-to about packaging:
