Hi,
First of all: I wasn't paying attention and thought these are your
*startup* scripts (rc2.d)...

pppd-dns (I actually underlined the entries I was talking about, but you
can only see that if you read your mails with a monospaced font). A look
at /etc/init.d/pppd-dns reveals, that this one won't save you much time,
though.

A simple text editor. It is part of the base system since it is very
small.

I just found out that I do not yet completely understand the SysV
runlevel system. But as I understand
/usr/share/doc/sysv-rc/README.runlevels.gz,
all scripts in rcS.d/ are started with the parameter 'start'.
If you don't need portmap (apt's dependency resolution will tell you),
you should remove it.

You can always remove the links from the rc?.d directories.
