While it's a good thing that the apparmor abstraction was fixed, it
seems to me that there are still bugs here; whatever is corrupting
secrets.tdb should not be doing so if it does not have access to
/var/lib/samba/group_mapping.ldb, nor should pam_smbpass.so be segfaulting
if secrets.tdb is corrupt.
