Quite often you come across var archives with dependencies that are not freely available, and you have to either endure the Error Log or manually cut them out of meta.json.
This is how this mini-script was born, it is written in Python, so the interface is lame, but it does its job.
So, how it works:
1) Copy all the text from the Error Log and click Process. Packages with missing dependencies will be displayed below.
2) Specify the folder containing var - \VAM\AddonPackages and click Choose. The script will search for packages containing missing files.
3) Select the archive and click Open - A brief summary with dependencies from the meta.json file from the archive will be displayed on the right and dependencies that are missing will be highlighted in red.
The meta.json from the archive will be unzipped to the folder that was selected above.
4) In the window on the right, you can select the dependencies that you want to exclude from the archive and click the Remove Selected button, or delete all missing ones by clicking Remove All.
5) Click the Save button. If you do not click it, no changes will be made to meta.json.
After clicking the save button, you can reopen the archive and make sure that the missing dependencies have been removed.
They are not in the meta,json itself either:
Aaaand, it's clean here:

During debugging, there were cases when the modified package was damaged, and because of this, VAM may stop seeing all other packages. To solve this, this package had to be downloaded again, so for your own peace of mind, a backup is desirable
