Thanks for the report. I'm not sure what the problem is that you're reporting. Can you give more details?

[Martin-Éric Racine (q-funk)]

As shown above, insserv fails to operate, because Apport's init script depends on another init script that has been converted to an Upstart task. since Apport is an Ubuntu-specific tool it, too, ought to be converted to an Upstart task.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

I think you are confusing apport and apparmor :-). Apport already has an upstart script, and the problem was reported against apparmor.

[Martin-Éric Racine (q-funk)]

Oops! Indeed so. Typos r us. Thak you for re-assigning to AppArmor. Is the report still incomplete?

[Kees Cook (kees)]

Right, fully converting apparmor to an upstart script will solve this. It is expected for the maverick cycle. Thanks!

Still applies to Maverick as of August 4th 2010:

This has been fixed in natty (s/mountall/$remote_fs/) now.
