After a powerloss, I lost also all dpkg info, including the "status"

Could someone help me get it back to work?
I'm far, far away from the machine, which rebooted nicely (some
libraries were also lost, though), but I'd like to reinstall all those
libraries which may be useful to get it back to work "just in case".
Thanks in advance
The same thing happened to me a while back. If you're lucky you might
have the files still on your computer. Debian makes a backup copy of the
status file.
Check for /var/lib/dpkg/status-old just copy that to /var/lib/dpkg/status.
It worked for me.
Hope that helps.
