It is very odd but i believe this is a design decision for the packaging project support in Visual Studio. Bundles are deemed to be release products so they don't allow publishing of debug packages in a bundle. You have to create a debug package for each and then deploy it individually. I wouldn't have done it that way but i can see the logic i guess.
