I have faced this error too.....In my case, it was because of slow internet connection. – Tamal Kanti Dey
When you say "package" - do you mean solution, project, plugin etc.? – Konrad Viltersten

In my experience, this is the "generic" error during import (when there isn't a handled exception). You'll have to enable tracing and look for the failure to find the true cause.

Refer to this KB article to enable tracing: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907490

I had this error once because the SDK API endpoint mismatched in a custom workflow activity.

Good luck, Matt

This is most likely due to time out issues. Make sure that your VPN is stable, check that the zones are in sync and that you can connect to the organization service via e.g. URL line in your browser.
