If the bug is that terrorists abruptly divert aircrafts into high buildings, then the total disabling the whole air traffic IS NOT A BUGFIX, but it is a TEMPORARY WORK AROUND only! The real bug fix is when you reopen the public air traffic with a better safety configuration!
To disable the apparmor is a temporary work around only. Since the foreign office documents are harmful, and hence it is a valuable gift, that the apparmor is suitable to protect say the local backup subtrees. It is in fact a conceptual bug to assume, that peope work in their home. Professionals, who were not brought up in the "My Documents", "My Photos" and "Downloads" world, do work elsewhere on regular base. Since the home tree became polluted by self invited and regularly changing system configuration data, typically not for tampering by the user. Remember please the happy 80's years, when the home containd exclusively only that kind of configuratkon files, which were edited only by the user itself. And as such, these user configuration files also belonged to the fruits of the users's onwn personal work. But nowadays, the professional approach is NOT to work in the home tree. ((I personally use 4 additional physical drives: /work and its local backup /zzzz, and /xtra and its local backup /ytra. Hence I wish to access by LibreOffice the regular /work and occassionally /xtra, and I wish to protect their local backups: /zzzz and /ytra .)) Hence I suggest NOT TO CONSIDER THIS BUG "Fix Released", since disabling of the protection IS NOT A BUGFIX. The bug is still there! There should be a user configurable list of user subtree roots. And there should be a HUGE WARNING in the LibreOffice error message, that where can the user find that configurable list of user subtree roots. Google the net please, and recognise please, how wide spread this bug is, and ho many discussions DO not recognies, that the problem is not directly with the LibreOffice itself, but only with the Windows-style missleading error message and bad access configuration. This bug is suitable to deter or discourage the users from LibreOffice and hence from Linux systems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1751005 Title: libreoffice cannot open a document not within $HOME Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Starting with today's update to LibreOffice 5.4.5.1 40m0(Build:1), files not within the user $HOME directory cannot be opened.
