This bug has actually been fixed. At least in Bionic we now have:
* xinit:
Recommends: ... gnome-terminal | xterm | x-session-manager | x-window-manager
| x-terminal-emulator
* xorg:
Depends: ... gnome-terminal | xterm | x-terminal-emulator, xinput

Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 13.04 (raring) reached end-of-life on January 27, 2014.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested
in discussing it any more.
Perhaps that's a good thing to experiment with in S? I'm reticent to
drop it from raring given how late in the game we are, since we don't
know exactly what that'd break...

oh, and i wonder if instead of breaking xinit for the users that use it
by dropping the dep or demoting xterm to x-terminal-emulator if we could
probably just get away with not shipping it at all on the desktop
(indeed that gets us in debugging hell where users are asked to run
startx to produce a
i guess at least using x-terminal-emulator as the dep would help so it
is enough to have only one terminal installed

Title:
xterm and gnome-term
For the xorg source package it looks like the dependency was added long
ago just as a convenience to ensure a terminal program was included.
Possibly there might be a debian failsafe session that pops it up, but
I'm not spotting evidence of such; in any case that wouldn't be
important to us.
For t
added tasks for xorg and xinit, they both have hard deps on xterm, the
xorg team needs to inspect if it is safe to demote it there as well

To manage
Have you read the origin report?
ubuntu-desktop depends on xorg and xorg depends on a terminal emulator,
good enough.
But now ubuntu-desktop depends on xterm and gnome-terminal directly.

Why is wrong to have a terminal? AFAIK, it doesn't bite...
