Your header
;;; eldoc-eval.el -- Show eldoc when using M-:
was missing a dash:
;;; eldoc-eval.el --- Show eldoc when using M-:
which meant the script was unable to figure out that this was a
single-package archive. I've checked in a fix.
But this package needs more work. Please commit a proper commentary to
the file, explaining what this package does and entry points for using
it. (That is what users see when they type `?' in the package menu.)

So where do i have to provide this information?
In a README file?
In the "Commentary:" section in the eldoc-eval.el file?

See the Packaging node in the Lisp manual. We could relax the regexp in
the script to allow two dashes, but it's just as easy to fix the
packages themselves, as in this case.

In the ";;; Commentary:" section. See Packaging node in the Lisp manual
for details.
