so somehow it was part installed

[Jamie Strandboge (jdstrand)]

The initial report indicated a parser error, but then it was reported that the apparmor package was removed, so then it would not be able to run properly. I'm not able to reproduce with the information given. If you are able to provide exact steps to reproduce, please do and we can take another look.
