I had a filesystem crash that damaged a few files.
dpkg wouldn't run after this, complaining about
errors. (dselect was running at the time of the crash)

I was able to fix /var/lib/dpkg/info/available
because there was a backup.

But some other files was ruined, such as emacs19.list
and ed.list  dpkg would not run because of that, so
I moved the offending files away from the directory.
dpkg is now usable, but complains that these files
are missing.  Can I restore them in any way,
without reinstalling debian?
