Well, you could:

# cd /usr/portage
# emerge unmerge gnome-*/*

to unmerge everything related to GNOME.

Note that this will also wipe out pretty much all GTK programs. Is this
what you want? Note that GNOME is an environment, while fluxbox is just
a WM.

The difference is the reason I switched. If I wanted bloatware, I'd go 
back to Windows :) I want to unmerge all packages that were installed 
because of a 'emerge gnome' that are not depended on by some other package.

I've recently switched to fluxbox from Gnome. I now want to uninstall 
Gnome. I want to unmerge all of Gnome's dependencies that are not 
depended on by another package. Is there an easy way to go about this?
