Install emacs 20, not 19...version 19 does seem to depend on xlib6g. That
doesn't make sense if you ask me. Maybe it should suggest it or
something, because it is compiled with X support, but it's definitely not
required.
The depends list for emacs20 doesn't mention anything about
X: Depends: emacsen-common, liblockfile0, libc6, liblockfile0 (>= 0.1-1),
libncurse
The emacsen-common package depends on:
bsdmainutils
