Interesting!  I seem to have two packages from gnome:

# emerge --depclean -v -a app-admin/system-config-printer-gnome 

Calculating dependencies... done!
  app-admin/system-config-printer-gnome-1.4.3 pulled in by:
    kde-base/print-manager-4.10.5 requires app-admin/system-config-printer-
gnome

# emerge --depclean -v -a gnome-base/gnome-common

Calculating dependencies... done!
  gnome-base/gnome-common-3.7.4 pulled in by:
    dev-python/pygobject-3.8.3 requires gnome-base/gnome-common

Not sure why they are being pulled in as dependencies ... ?
