> they have to do with python applications with apport hooks that are confined with apparmor.
The hook is defined in site.py, so by definition all python applications have the hook, and thus all python applications that are confined with apparmor. So either we want that apport for all of them, or (what I think makes more sense) none of them. I guess the question is: Shouldn't we have a python-apport abstraction that apps (or local admin) can include to make debugging work under apparmor? It should probably live in apport, I guess, so apport can define which files it needs. IIRC, the gcc stuff is irrelevant, that comes from ctypes, imported from magic, not from apport. But that might also be a case where it could be useful to have a python-ctypes abstraction, probably shipped in python. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apparmor in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1824961 Title: AppArmor blocks apport python hook from working Status in AppArmor: New Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu: New Status in kopanocore package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The Python profile is very strict, but it prevents Python applications from producing proper crash reports using apport, as the apport hook cannot be loaded, as it requires access to dpkg's cputable, and likely also apt config files and dpkg status files. I'm wondering what the right approach here is: Should the apport hook work under AppArmor, and do we thus have to add the files the hook needs; or should we just say "screw it, we want the additional security" and not get proper error reporting while AppArmor is confining the program?
