Packaging an installed application back into a .deb
 
Is it possible to package an installed application back into a .deb install file? My intention is to keep a backup of Angry Birds Level Pack 1 in case I need/want to reflash the device.

Code:

sudo gainroot
apt-get install dpkg-repack
apt-get clean
cd /home/user/MyDocs
dpkg-repack angrybirds

apt-get install dpkg repack

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
dpkg-repack: Depends: dpkg-dev but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

apt-get install dpkg-dev

E: Package dpkg-dev has no installation candidate


extras, extras-testing and extras-devel enabled. Is the dpkg-dev package elsewhere to be found?
