All I know is on my stripped down computer with no speakers (except
for the boot beep beeper), I asked myself: why can I dpkg-purge
esound-clients, but then if I do apt-get dist-upgrade (vs.
dselect-upgrade), it gets installed back again?

Well it turns out esound-clients is depended on by libesd0 which
removing would cause
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  gnumeric gnuplot gnuplot-mode gnuplot-nox gnuplot-x11 icewm
  libbonoboui2-0 libesd0 libgnome2-0 libgnomeui-0 libgoffice-0-6
  libwxgtk2.6-0

So no easy way to say, "I don't have sound on this device, so no need
to install sound items".
