I agree that it does not need to be essential at all, but that being said new versions of dpkg in the future will require tex for install-info since its being deprecated for ginstall-info upstream so maybe we need to look at debs of debs? I'll re-work debianutils today and split it up I should be able to make it 2 pkgs and break out po4a I did it for the new dpkg already. BTW po4a is the po translator Debian now uses on all essentials.
