Bug Description

Binary package hint: apparmor

Ubuntu 8.04.2
Package: apparmor-utils
Version: 2.1+1075-0ubuntu9.2

A not uncommon practice is to use RCS to track changes to system configuration files. With most *.d/ directories on Debian systems you can create an RCS subdirectory, and it will be safely ignored.

If you create /etc/apparmor.d/RCS, aa-logprof will attempt to parse the files in that directory and produce errors. I'm not sure if this directory processing behavior occurs just in the helper tools, like aa-logprof, or if the main AppArmor program does this as well. Either way, it should behave more consistently with other Debian tools.
