Does anyone have experience of package files becoming corrupted.

I installed a component into D3 into the Delphi Users' Components package,
which normally works fine, except that Delphi just hung immediately after
the installation. The component in question was installed in Delphi when I
installed it previously, but last time I reinstalled I hadn't got around to
reinstalling it - until now when a project needed it.

After some fruitless editing of the DPK to remove the references to the new
component,  which failed to stop Delphi hanging at startup, I eventually
deleted the Registry reference to the package and now everthing is fine. All
I have to do is to re-create that package.

The question is can the packages get corrupted somehow and is there a
simpler way of fixing it?
