Hello,
AppArmor 2.7 (beta1) is in Factory since some hours.
Short version: please test it and report any problems you notice.
Long version:
I'm quite new in maintaining the AppArmor package (I became maintainer last saturday ;-) Additionally, I dropped a 380k patch that changed the whole upstream buildsystem to use automake [1].
In other words: the whole build process of the AppArmor package is totally new, and it might be that this introduced some regression I didn't notice yet.
A known "regression" is that the tomcat_apparmor package is no longer built - it is unmaintained upstream since quite some time and failed to build. If anyone needs this, please step up and help maintaining it ;-)
Please test if the AppArmor 2.7 beta1 package works as expected on your system - if not, please reply to this mail or open a bugreport. (Success reports are also welcome, of course.)
If you don't have a Factory installation available, you can also download packages for 11.3 and 11.4 from security:apparmor:factory. In theory, they should work on those systems without changing the kernel side, but I can't promise that ;-) (they seem to work on my 11.4 system)
Finally: thanks to everybody who helped me to get the AppArmor package updated by personal support on the conference and online support on IRC.
Regards,
Christian Boltz
[1] I don't really know automake and upstream isn't too interested in this patch[2], therefore I decided to drop it. (The patch is still included in the sources in OBS, but disabled - just in case someone wants to update it and push it upstream.)
[2] it only applies to 2.6.1, not to 2.7 - and it looks like nobody wants to update such a big patch, so it's understandable May I add, to test the AppArmor notifier with it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
