[Bug 611301] Re: apparmor denies firefox access to /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin

2010-08-04 Thread Simon Déziel
Please note that there is no real issue I can observe as Firefox and Flash work perfectly even when AA denies access to the symlink /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin. The only observable thing I have is a log message. /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin is effectively a symlink on my system

Simon, glad it is fixed for you. The warning you see in the kern.log is known and is nothing to worry about (the kernel is fixing an issue caused by the userspace tools). A future update should fix this, but it is harmless. -- apparmor denies firefox access to

/etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin should be a symlink to something (eg /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so) and not an actual file. AppArmor will effectively 'realpath' a symlink so /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin should not need to be added to the profile, but
