just rebooted with a puppy precise usb, and it has indeed the REMOVE BUILT IN PACKAGES in SETUP
help said, that it will actually not remove it now, but it will when a new .iso file created

is this little program a package?
what its name?
maybe I can install it in Lighthouse / Slacko ?

I am trying to remove ORIGINALLY included packages.....so far no luck !

Any suggestion, please ?

Thanks !
