Information message.

How to fix this error?

You can make the correction in the package maintenance. Enter the
current package in the Object Navigator (transaction SE80) and switch
to change mode. You must then choose whether the package is to be
delivered or not.
If you want to deliver the package, then you must use input help to
assign a suitable software component that is defined in the system.
If you do not want to deliver the package, then you must also use input
help to assign the respective software component, that is 'HOME' or
'LOCAL'.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Note:
Even if the correct software component ('HOME' or 'LOCAL') is already
assigned for packages that are not to be delivered, you must assign
this component again using input help. Only when you save the assigned
software component is the delivery indicator (which cannot be
maintained from the user interface) adjusted correspondingly.
If the correct software component is already assigned but is not
defined in the current system, contact system administration. They will
then check whether this software component can be recognized in the
current system.
