The gnome metapackage needs tomboy, which itself relies on mono :

$ apt-cache rdepends libmono-addins0.2-cil
libmono-addins0.2-cil
Reverse Depends:
  banshee
  tomboy
  monodevelop-versioncontrol
  monodevelop-nunit
  monodevelop-java
  monodevelop-database
  monodevelop
  libmono-addins-gui0.2-cil
  f-spot

$ apt-cache rdepends tomboy
tomboy
Reverse Depends:
  gnome-applets
  gnome-applets
  gnome
  gimmie

P.S.: the -www list is about the website, this discussion is more relevant on
debian-user.
