The /var/log/audit/audit.log is really big. I've open transmission and capture the audit.log file just after I push the button "Open" that gives the denial error to directory "/home/fprietog/Descargas" that is my Download directory (it's in Spanish):

Was apparmor changed recently to not take these variables from the user .config file but only from it's own file (/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/xdg- user-dirs)? If that's the case all non english systems will be affected. If you still want the whole audit.log file, please tell me and I try to clear it and do a reboot to make it as small as possible.

Transmission (BT Client) access to user Downloads directory is denied. I think that the problem may be that several XDG variables are not set/filled, for instance $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR. The apparmor profiles that rely in any of these variables may lead to authorization errors in their corresponding application. For instance the "transmission" profile contains this definition: # cat /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/transmission-common | grep -i xdg owner @{HOME}/@{XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR}/ r, owner @{HOME}/@{XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR}/** rw, Additional info: ---------------- # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 25.10 Release: 25.10 # apt-cache policy apparmor apparmor: Instalados: 5.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu8 Candidato: 5.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu8 Tabla de versión: *** 5.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu8 500 500 https://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports questing/main arm64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apparmor/+bug/2127486/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
