** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ Due to various changes in AppArmor, and the AppArmor policy for Tor Browser 
installed by the launcher, the default ibus/dbus abstractions don't include 
user-space access to DBUS/IBUS.
+ 
+ This results in Tor Browser being unable to read keyboard input in
+ userspace, resulting in a Non-Functional application.  While Tor Browser
+ *launcher* still works, the underlying Tor Browser inherits the AppArmor
+ profile from torbrowser-launcher, hence this needs updated here.
+ 
+ [Test Plan]
+ This fix has already been tested and implemented in Debian upstream.  
However, it was not available before FeatureFreeze, and was not available in 
Debian until post-Noble release.
+ 
+ This has already been tested manually by others, but as soon as a
+ version with the patch present is available, a user should install the
+ updated torbrowser-launcher package and the updated AppArmor profile
+ should apply, and the program should work as usual.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Extremely limited.  This simply allows access to userspace dbus/ibus access 
for Keyboard input.
+ 
+ Note that this exact same line being added to the AppArmor profile here
+ exists in the Firefox AppArmor ruleset as well, and since Tor Browser
+ and Firefox share much of the same code, this should have limited to no
+ impact as this has existed in Firefox for a long time.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+ This is already available in Debian Unstable, and also in Oracular due to the 
sync.
+ 
+ Simon Quigley is handling the upload and prep of the SRU debdiff to
+ noble-updates as a favor to Thomas Ward who is having computer scuff at
+ the time of the uploading.
+ 
+ 
+ [Original Description]
+ 
  I have installed tor browser v13.0.11 on 24.04 (noble). The keyboard
  does not operate, when typing no characters are appearing.
  
  I have tried to enter a search and also type in a URL but this is not
  working.
  
  I am using default Ubuntu desktop with wayland.
