It might, but that's really hard to test (adding newer packge versions
as installation candidate is easy, entirely removing one is hard).
The tomcat6 scores will be a bit lower, but I'm not sure whether this
will be sufficient. Please ping me once tomcat6 is gone from jessie and
I'll recheck.

You also need to fix guacamole-tomcat for getting rid of tomcat6
(#759621), I just fixed the incorrect tagging ...
