converting decremental to full backup

Hello,

I have created a decremental backup and a full one, from older time.
 
Now I'd like to get rid of the full backup and convert the decremental to
full one. 
- in fact the opposite what I did when I created the decremental backup.

I have tried:

dar -+  -A full -@ decremental -/ Oo 

# to try overwriting deta in full archive with data from decremental archive

I have tried replacing -A and -@, change -Oo to -Pp

but either I get incremental/decremental backup, or I get the full backup
containing new files.

is it possible to create old full debug without extracting both backups?

dar 2.5.8 / debian 9

Thank you.
