While I agree it's the Right Thing To Do, right now aa-notify just
parses the log and it works OK. It just needs the proper permissions on
the log to do that without being root.

Can't we implement the permission solution as a first step ? Even if
it's not a perfect solution, it just works, and I don't see any harmful
side-effect - that's what the adm group is for, IMO. Of course, please
correct me if I'm wrong !
