    I selected magento local module has
    target path,I gave ./app/code/local/
    in path.Is this correct?

    No. This is not correct.

    Magento Local Module file is relative to app/code/local/. So, here you should give path as YourNamespace/YourModule and select Type as Recursive Dir.

    What is the difference between file
    and recursive dir?

    File means single file. Like a module global file in app/etc/YourNamespace_YourModule.xml.

    Recursive Dir means a whole directory. Like in app/code/local/YourNamespace/YourModule.

    After you create package, the package module is inside var/pear directory.

    Hope this helps.

    Edit:-

    For skin files, select contents as below:-

    Target = Magento Theme Skin (Images, CSS, JS) [ This is relative to skin/ (a slash after skin)]

    Path = frontend/default/default/css/styles.css

    See this article for screenshots:- Magento: How to create extension package? (IMAGES)
