For what I see (and understand) it’s not the same issue.

In my case, I just don’t arrive to the end of the uninstallation of “fish”.

Then I “force” to exit.

Then again, the system works correctly, “fish” it’s not more working (like it is uninstalled) but result to be installed in DietPi-Software.

I think there’s something wrong in the script which uninstall “fish” optimized.

If “fish” is installed in the “normal” way (apt install fish), it can be uninstalled normally.

It is exactly that issue. The uninstall aborts due to missing -R in dir removal command, after the APT package has been removed already. This leaves the installed flag in dietpi-software present.

Important is that you change back the shell for users to bash via chsh command as noted in that issue.

Probably worth a live patch.
