Well, well, well... I don't know what this mean the error before, but I managed:

1. restored lazarus.old.exe to lazarus.exe
2. start IDE (I see just the default pallete)
3. click in 'Package'>'Install/Unistall packages...'
4. I see my packages in the "Install list"...
5. I choose any package the the "Do not Install" (the rebuild button
was enabled)
6. click in "Save and rebuild IDE"
7. my packages were installed!

=)

Is the best way to do this?
