I have kind of a very stupid question, but I am also a but stuck.

I have a server that have a package install on it, but I do not have the .tgz file anymore to redo the install of that same package.

I can't rebuilt that package now for many reason, but if I have to, it could be done, but with pain.

So, my question is if there is a way somehow to have the .tgz rebuilt from the install one?

I assume it should be possible as the DB for the packages is clean and good, so all files would be properly remove with dependency, etc if remove.

Is this totally stupid to think that way, or is it possible.

Usually built package are done for the fake directory based on the FAQ. Anyway to built it from a working system?

If that's stupid, just say so and I will drop the idea and see how I could do it an other way. I guess I could always copy files by files and make the changes to the packages DB, but it that also stupid?
