Hi Abel,
I understand that you have eventually managed to find the "WGS 84 / UTM 
zone 35S" CRS that you didn't find before. Is it correct?

Anyway, I suppose you have imported a CSV file as a vector layer using 
the Data Source Manager -> Delimited Text dialog window, selecting the X 
field and the Y field of you CSV file containing the points' coordinates 
and then the CRS of such coordinates. Could you confirm?

If it is so, what are the coordinates of a sample point contained in 
your CSV file? What CRS have you selected in the Data Source Manager -> 
Delimited Text when you have imported the CSV file as a vector layer?

The error message states that the coordinates of a point contained in 
the vector layer that you want export to a GeoPackage file are 
291235.14000, -260651.250000 and that such vector layer has been set to 
CRS EPSG:4326.

If it is so, then I guess you have wrongly set the CRS of the vector 
layer, imported from a CSV file, to EPSG:4326: such coordinates are 
obviously not referred to the EPSG:4326, which is a geographic 
coordinate system in degrees corresponding to Longitude and Latitude, 
whereas the above-mentioned coordinates doesn't correspond to Longitude 
and Latitude in degree.

Regards.
