As I recall, mono is part of the Gnome meta-package, so removal of
gnome requires the removal of package 'gnome'. This doesn't remove any
of the real packages that make up the Gnome DE, though (except those
that do require Mono, of which ISTR there are non-mono alternatives).
This is all based on heresay, though, I don't use Gnome and have never
uninstalled Mono.
