Oh my ... my ... isn't that a disaster!
The worst perhaps is manually fingering
with /var/lib/dpkg/info entries, since
all install and deinstall scripts would
be removed !
Don't know if anyone had ever heard of
such a disaster. Your best bet would be
to post it to debian-user group where
there are a lot of Gurus, inclusive of
the package maintainers :

PS: Give dselect a try ... usually works
where apt fails !!! Just a hunch though.
