How do you know it are ram leechers?
When a package is installed correctly it should be uninstall correctly also.
If you are speaking about the packages which came with the CD, then a remaster has to be done.

Time savers:

It's stupid to use inferior software for ideological reasons.

Umren, I think you are experiencing one of the odd 'features' of the package manager. If you wish to uninstall a package, you must first select to display the repository that it was originally downloaded from, or it wont work. Thus: if you originally downloaded the package from say 'official puppy 3', you must select that repository at the top of package manager before it can be uninstalled.

Problems with PET uninstall
I have the same problem. I tried unsuccessful to uninstall the Gxineplug-in package and it isn't working. Even installing it and then uninstalling it doesn't work. I prefer to use mplayerplug-in to play my steaming music instead of the gxineplug-in.
I'm new to Puppy. It took me two tries to get it installed. This is a great small distro.
I had to revert to what I know (delete all Gxine files from /usr/lib/mozilla/plug-ins) and that worked. Now I can listen to my streaming music using the mplayerplug-in.
