Now I want to fix a package or two by reinstalling the configurations.
aptitude purge package aptitude install package

Is there a way to do it painlessly and automatically with aptitude ?
I think you need 'dpkg -i --force-confmiss package-file.deb'. If you
didn't run 'aptitude clean' lately you should find the .debs in
/var/cache/apt/archives/
