I currently cannot survey the consequences, since I am not familiar with the recent semantic changes of apparmor (are there any docs? Any hints to the users about changes? Any release notes?)

For some time now I am spending and wasting lots of time to hunt bugs in all sorts of software like firefox, chromium, ejabberd, lxd,... which is all caused by sudden apparmor trouble.

A side effect of all these bugs is that log files (and desktops through aa-notify) are flooded with hundres, thousands, millions of log messages, which jams a system and makes it impossible to find really important log messages, and, btw., can ruin flash memory in SSDs and SD-Cards within short time.

Why on earth has one backported this pile of bugs into a LTS version?

This rendered Ubuntu so unreliable, that I have to consider to change to CentOS or something like this for servers in order to get SELinux instead.

Is there any way to get 16.04 stable again?

BTW: How should I answer the question about the consequences of the bug, if I don't see any docs about was has changed with apparmor?
