Description Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev

It's deprecated for ages and nothing in the tree is using it: I would drop it 

The only package setting that variable is gretl, but it's not using gnome2.eclas

(in a month we should be able to kill it after, hopefully, any people from overlays notice they need to migrate)
