The ERROR show up when you already have a file or a folder with name: "hello" in your execute folder, whatever 'dh-make' or 'dh_make' is used in your command.
Can you check it gain Daniel?

Title:
  Session 6.2. Starting a Package shows wrong command line

Status in Ubuntu Packaging Guide:
  New

Bug description:
  When following the steps on creating a package for Ubuntu, under
  session 6.2 Starting a Package (and using the hello-2.7.tar.gz project
  example), this line on the first box returned me an error:

  $ bzr dh-make hello 2.7 hello-2.7.tar.gz
  bzr: ERROR: Either run the command from an existing branch of upstream, or move hello aside and a new branch will be created there.

  Tweaking a little bit around with the commands and searching online, I
  found out the proper command should be:

  dh_make

  ..instead, so we'd get:

  $ bzr dh_make hello 2.7 hello-2.7.tar.gz
  Fetching tarball                                                                                                                                                                                 
  Looking for a way to retrieve the upstream tarball
  Upstream tarball already exists in build directory, using that
                                                                                                                                                                                                   
  Type of package: single binary, indep binary, multiple binary, library, kernel module, kernel patch?
   [s/i/m/l/k/n]

  Thanks,
  Daniel
