I've completed the backport and prepared an upload. I've spent more time on this than I should have and will not be able to see it through the landing process at this time. If someone can take this forward and land it, please go ahead and do so.
The backport includes unit tests that run at build time and those have passed. I haven't done any additional testing. Here's the AppArmor test plan: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Process/Merges/TestPlans/AppArmor Since this would only be going to the Vivid overlay PPA, there's no need to perform the Desktop specific tests in the test plan. James, is this something that you could land using the same silo as your mediascanner2 changes? ** Patch added: "apparmor_2.9.1-0ubuntu9.1.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/media-hub/+bug/1489489/+attachment/4732485/+files/apparmor_2.9.1-0ubuntu9.1.debdiff ** Changed in: apparmor (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-system-settings- online-accounts in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1489489 Title: The org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() method is deprecated Status in Ubuntu Online Accounts API: Confirmed Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in content-hub package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in dbus package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in media-hub package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in mediascanner2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in signon-apparmor-extension package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-download-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-system-settings-online-accounts package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When upstream D-Bus merged the AppArmor mediation patches, they did not like the GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() bus method. Instead, they decided to expose a peer's AppArmor context using the org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionCredentials() bus method. All users of the GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() method should switch to the GetConnectionCredentials() method as soon as possible so that Ubuntu can drop the patch that implements GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() by the time 16.04 LTS is released. In order to switch to the new method, you'll need to depend on libapparmor 2.10 or newer. I'll be adding example code that illustrates how to switch from GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() to GetConnectionCredentials(). content-hub, media-hub, mediascanner2, signon-apparmor-extension, ubuntu-download-manager, and ubuntu-system-settings-online-accounts all need to transition to the new method of obtaining the AppArmor label. The apparmor package should be updated to drop the libapparmor- mention-dbus-method-in-getcon-man.patch patch and the dbus package should be updated to drop the aa-get-connection-apparmor-security- context.patch patch.
