I want to use vpnc with NM but why does that need so many gnome packages?

Because of bug 158326 and bug 198529.
Comment 2 Felix Möller 2006-10-15 10:38:14 UTC 
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=158691 is about the same too.

"And in this case, yes, GNOME will be pulled.  That's fine, as I am using the
GNOME NM VPN infrastructure (g-k-d and VPN the configuration dialog) for
KNetworkManager at the moment.  Not a long term solution, but as KNM can not
guess the VPN properties of a unknown VPN plugin the only solution for now."

So is there any long term solution in sight?
