Creating MkVimball doesn’t care about the directory what it does care about is 
that the paths to the files are correct. I make vimballs from all the plugins I 
use as it makes it easier to manage them. I usually create them from within the 
unzipped folder.  It was slightly non-obvious to me the first time I attempted 
to create a vimball from a zipped archive. The trick it turned out was to list 
each file on a separate line with either full or relative path to the directory 
to which your vimball will get made; then, highlight all the lines and do 
:MkVimball vimball_name /path/to/vimball. Hope this helps.
