xinit requires util-linux which requires perl

...and I'm trying to compute in a perl-free environment.  Yes, really.

Is there some way the packages could be reworked so that an X-related install or
update doesn't try to pull in perl?  It gets tiresome having to uncheck
util-linux and perl every time I update my set of machines with setup.exe.

Thanks for any concurrence on this,

..mark
