Well, it tries to make Mandrake packages when you select to make Debian
packages. As an example, I have tried to package the DataReportExample
included in gambas. This is the log that appears in the packaging
window:

#############################

And after that a message saying that "The package build has failed"
In the terminal where I open gambas from, I can see many more messages:

More information: I asked gambas to build the packages in a directory
called /home/jose/instal, but it  uses /home/jose/RPM. On the other
hand, this is not the structure for Debian packages. I haven't tested
this feature in previous versions of gambas, so I don't know if this is
a new bug  or Debian packages have never been done. I don't know too
much about RPM packaging, but looking at Package.module in gambas
sources it looks quite different of what deb packages need to be built.

I have seen that you try to build debian packages using alien after
generating rpm packages, but this uses to fail because  all the tools to
build a rpm package are  needed. Those tools are not installed in a
debian system by default (debian rpm package exists and it has most of
them as brp-compress, brp-..., but they are not enough as I see) , so
maybe it would be easy to build debian packages in a Mandrake box, but
not in a Debian box, what makes not too much sense.
Reading the above logs I can also check two things more: the name of the
standard debian packages has to be those you put in Mandrake (no problem
with that, I have also finished them) and the 
/home/jose/RPM/tmp/datareportexample-buildroot/usr/share/menu directory
hasn't been created, I haven't been able to find how or where it should
have been created.

I hope this will help to find out the problem. 
Regards.
