Bug Description

The apparmor init script was recent regressed to require disk space in /tmp on reload. This problem was fixed by using only memory for comparing the profile lists a few releases ago.

This was never fixed in Ubuntu, only in AppArmor upstream. Ubuntu ships debian/apparmor.init from ~ubuntu-core-dev/apparmor/master, and it was never updated to use the changes in upstream's version. As such, this is not a regression, but instead a duplicate of the Ubuntu task of 775785.
