Is there a command that will completly uninstall all of the gnome packages.
I tried "pkg_delete -R gnome" but after a while it dies with this error:

pkg_delete: can't allocate 20 bytes: Cannot allocate memory

I have  512M of ram so that souldnt be a problem. I notice as the command
above is running my memory slowly gets eaten away until none left and dies
with that error. Is there any other way to delete all the gnome packages so
I can recompile without threads.
