Karthik, Not sure if you have gone through this,
Before trying to use the MPC to create a package, ensure that you've done a configure and build on your project in Anjuta. May be little time consuming.. but worthwhile to learn! http://moblin.org/documentation/moblin-sdk/getting-ready-moblin-development My guess is that your build environment is main stream *nix! Let us know if this helps, or you find some issues that needs to be fixed!

The shared library my app needs is clutter-gst. So how can i mention it in the moblin package creator's Requires and Depends fileds? I tried to place libclutter-gst, libclutter-gst-0.10, clutter-gst Though my system has this, while installing it is telling dependent package is not installed. Suppose i make clutter-gst shared library as part of my package, then is there a way where i can check for the availability of the clutter-gst library on the target system and copy it only if it is not present already?
