Bug Description

emacs25 is one of the last 3 packages in main depending on gconf. gconf has been deprecated for years and is not used in the Ubuntu or GNOME desktops. Whatever emacs is looking up in gconf is probably invalid.

The other gconf-using packages are aisleriot (LP: #1669138) and openjdk (LP: #1669132)
