Several of those apps are not part of a new, default Ubuntu GNOME
17.04 (Beta) install. I recommend starting from a new install (or the
live daily iso).

Why do you have a problem with libunity9 being installed? It doesn't
take up and much space and just enables better Unity integration.
Since the app is compiled against the libunity library, it must depend
on it.
