There really is no reason to try to rip a rom and then cab up a package...
Just search for the program either here or at XDA and you will find the original cab that the packages were made from!

A lot less work than dumping a rom and converting packages! Especially since you won't have to burn a ton of hard drive space for packages you don't intent to convert.
