I installed the complete Gnome desktop in order to test one of the ports I maintain. I recently found out that the developer is no longer going to upgrade or support the port, so the version in the tree is essentially the "last" version. The port is a simple clock utility x11-clocks/wmfuzzy and works correctly. Anyway, I now want to remove gnome from my system. The problem I'm having is that apps rely on some of the Gnome stuff. How can I safely remove Gnome without removing the parts that are required by other apps? I was hoping that there is a way without doing a pkg_delete on every gnome app and looking at the dependencies.
