Perhaps you can restore them from backups?

I know. But the only excuse for lack of backups is "my data is not 
important".

Failing that, you'll have to rely on your memory. First you need to 
locate the .deb files - if you've used apt-get, you'll probably find 
them in /var/cache/apt/archives.

To get you back to the starting point, you'll need to reinstall all the 
Apache packages you currently have installed:

1)  List the ones currently installed:
    # dpkg --list '*apache2*' | grep '^ii'
Or alternatively, list the packages which put files in /etc/apache2:
    # dpkg --search etc/apache2 

2)  For each package (there's probably more than one), re-install the 
corresponding *.deb file:

    # dpkg --install --force-confmiss {{{PACKAGE_vers_arch}}}.deb

Hope this helps
