That is only possible then if you've tried some manual rebase and have these
DLL still recorded in /etc/rebase.db.* -- in which case you should be able
to recover by doing a full rebase (which removes the existing rebase
database as the first step).

Again, given what you say about the content of /var/cache/rebase this is
only possible if you've previously added those DLL to the rebase database.

Achim.
