The RECREATE PACKAGE statement creates a new package or recreates an existing package header.If a package header with the same name already exists, then this statement will first drop it and then create a new package header.It is not possible to recreate the package header if there are still dependencies on the existing package, or if the body of the package exists.Existing privileges of the package itself are not preserved, nor are privileges to execute the procedures or functions of the package.
