Which leads us back to the other question, why can't there just be one, that 
defaults to x if you have x, but alternatively does --nox as a cli option.  
Package 'emacs' provides just the text method, package 'emacs-x' allows for 
gui or some such without replacing /usr/bin/emacs.  Just thinking out loud 
here.
