apparmor-messages in the syslog

[Michael Fritscher]

Binary package hint: ntp

Got this several times:
[ 1073.892395] type=1502 audit(1238573651.007:105): operation="inode_permission" requested_mask="::r" denied_mask="::r" fsuid=123 name="/proc/6487/net/if_inet6" pid=6487 profile="/usr/sbin/ntpd"

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we can't fix it because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem. We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures.
At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!

When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's "Help -> Report a Problem" menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.

When this bug was filed, it was before the ntp profile was shipping in enforcing mode (ie, it was a complain mode only profile in apparmor-profiles). The profile in 9.10 also has the following:
  @{PROC}/*/net/if_inet6 r,

I am thus going to mark this as 'Fix Released'.
