It may not simply be an issue between the tarball and the directory, but this
is what I'm seeing while trying to package ncarray for Fedora:

+ octave -H -q --no-window-system --no-site-file --eval 'pkg build
'\''-verbose'\'' /tmp/rpm/octave-ncarray-1.0.2-1.fc20.x86_64
/export/home/orion/redhat/octave-ncarray-1.0.2/ncArray'
package name 'ncarray' doesn't correspond to its filename 'ncArray'
error: called from 'pkg>install' in file /usr/share/octave/3.6.4/m/pkg/pkg.m
near line 744, column 11
error: called from:
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.6.4/m/pkg/pkg.m at line 772, column 5
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.6.4/m/pkg/pkg.m at line 636, column 3
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.6.4/m/pkg/pkg.m at line 493, column 7
error: Bad exit status from /tmp/rpm/rpm-tmp.bIjCCk (%build)

If I rename the directory inside the tarball to "ncarray" from "ncArray" then
it works.

I get the same error if I try to package it as "ncArray":

+ octave -H -q --no-window-system --no-site-file --eval 'pkg build
'\''-verbose'\'' /tmp/rpm/octave-ncArray-1.0.2-1.fc20.x86_64
/export/home/orion/redhat/octave-ncArray-1.0.2/ncArray'
package name 'ncarray' doesn't correspond to its filename 'ncArray'

So the package name of "ncarray" seems to be coming internally from the
package or octave.
