I've seen this also
What I did to get it to work was touch the file. Also this was happening
recursively until I'd update xemacs-base and quit xemacs
Ie I'd touch a file, restart the package update and it would bomb again

Subject: package update bug
I am getting problems updating my packages under the latest
beta. Basically
I get:
"Doign chmod: NO such file or directory,
<sompath>/pkginfo/MANIFEST.somepkg"
and the update aborts (so I can't update everything). Surely
this error is
not a showstopper? Although I think the bug is.
