There's the WITHOUT_GNOME knob which can be used when a port is > built to turn it off. The issue is not that fvwm-themes might use Gnome but that the fvwm2 it relies on uses it. I suppose a better message would be: "fvwm-themes requires that fvwm2 (or fvw2-devel) be built WITHOUT_GNOME. If you have installed fvwm2 subsequent to installing Gnome, and WITHOUT_GNOME was not specified when installing fvwm2, please deinstall fvwm2 and reinstall it WITHOUT_GNOME."
