That would inidicate that the original driver source (when you imported the driver) has been deleted - so it doesn't have access to the files anymore.
Hi,

Just to underline the point, when organising drivers you need two things:
1) the source files all nicely organised into logical folders - 1 model, 1 OS
2) another set of EMPTY folders that mirror the structure of the above

You need to keep the source files - don't delete them, don't move them, don't rename them. The driver packages always look at the source path you imported them from.

This time it looks like it created the package and I can see the Drivers in it..first attempts the package came up Empty even though the drivers showed up under Drivers node.

This is how I started.
I downloaded Dell Drivers as .CAB file

I highly recommend you use this Modern Driver Management tool which makes things a lot easier with driver management in SCCM.

That looks good at the glance: https://msendpointmgr.com/modern-driver-management/ 
Is it 100% free ?

I did some research, and found this:

First Not sure why SCCM created 2 Dell Packages one here:

and another one here:

Per this Dell Link:

you need to distribute the package to DP.

So I am not sure  why not  just distribute this one:
