As Mick said, it has been a while.  I think if you emerge the editor you
want and change any config files that need to be changed then portage
will let you unmerge nano.  If I recall correctly, once some other
editor is installed that will satisfy the virtual then it should let you
unmerge the others without complaining.  On this one tho, there may be a
config that needs to be edited as well.   I would search for any mention
of nano in /etc and change anything that shows up containing it. 

Hope that helps.  They do get confusing at times.
