Bug Description
In Kubunutu 17.04 and also latest Kubuntu staging packages, in a fresh home directory akonadi fails to be started, very quickly with mysterious error messages in ./.local/
Database process exited unexpectedly during initial connection!
Running this command in strace one can observe that read access to /proc/self/status is rejected short before the failure, only googling this finally suggested AppArmor might be invovled.
This can be fixed by putting the relevant AppArmor profile to complain mode:
sudo aa-complain usr.sbin.
But that is not a proper fix for the issue, the profile should be fixed to save John Doe user to have to deal with AppArmor.
