Vote with your choice of distro. In Ubuntu, Mono appears to be pervasive:

Well that's ubuntu , Here is the result from debian squeeze .
#apt-get purge mono-runtime Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package mono-runtime is not installed, so not removed 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
or even better # dpkg --get-selections | grep mono #
I had a basic install + gnome-desktop-environment installed and there are no mono packages on my machine . But sadly there are mono packages in the repository !
