If I am going to make one gallon of wine how much yeast would I use? The whole packet?

Yes, but since it will lose so much viability after its opened that you might as well use it all unless you'll be using the rest in a week or so.
The "dosage" for one package of yeast is "one to 6 gallons", so you can certainly use the whole package.

Or make a starter of the entire packet and divvy it up into mini batches and store it. Great stickies on harvesting/freezing yeast!
Have found a vacuum sealer works great if you want to preserve the remaining dry portion.
