** Description changed:

  It looks like mdbtools-gmdb is keeping several obsolete packages in main
  such as libbonoboui, libgnomecanvas, and libgnomeui.
  
  Perhaps mdbtools could be demoted entirely to universe. It's listed in
  the platform.zesty seed in supported-misc-servers,  Database section.
  Its only reverse dependency in main is an alternate Suggests from
  libreoffice-base-drivers.
  
  Please at least demote mdbtools-gmdb to universe.
+ 
+ (Currently emacs25 depends on gconf which pulls in those obsolete
+ packages. emacs25 in zesty-proposed doesn't have that dependency.
+ emacs25 ftbfs on arm64 LP: #1656474)
