A lot of peoples I know work on virtual machines that have just the bare minimal packages to do compilation. There don't have X11 and will clearly not install a X11 server just for a single configuration tool that have on other side a perfectly working console interface. Other problem is that those virtual machines are mainly used on Windows based system where the most used program to do a SSH connection to it is PuTTY that don't support X11.
