I think xorg-xinit should depend inetutils because startx (part of xorg-xinit) use 'hostname' which belongs to inetutils.

On my laptop wasn't installed inetutils so you can live without it but if you want to use startx you have to install inetutils.
This task depends upon

You don't HAVE to install inetutils. Without it X will simply print an info message "hostname not found", which is harmless.

inetutils should at best be an optdepends.
