Hello,
thank you for reporting the issue. Indeed there is a bug that is triggered by command-line Publisher when a mod with game extensions (DLLs) is published.

Until we update are tools suite, you can download the development version of command-line Publisher from here: http://arma.jiripolasek.com/files/PublisherCmd_138612.zip

Please accept my apologies for the trouble caused by this issue.
