I created a package based on Magento ver-1.6. When I upload that package/extension through Magento-connect it through the following error. I googled and didn't got clear idea.
CONNECT ERROR: The 'local' channel is not installed. Please use the MAGE shell script to install the 'local' channel.
All other extensions are installed properly when we installed through Magento-Connect.

According to the packaging manual the channel should be "community", not "local".
The channel is not the same as the pool, which would be the folder you put a module in.

You should use these commands in your Magento root folder:
chmod 777 mage
./mage mage-setup .
