Occasionally users will receive and OTA update that requires apparmor policy to be recompiled. Recompiling apparmor policy can take quite a bit of time (minutes) depending on how many applications the user has installed. While this is only expected to happen on major OTA OS upgrades (eg, 14.10 to 15.04), it is possible it could happen at other times. This would improve the user experience for developers considerably since policy recompiles can be relatively frequent when running the development release.

To improve the user experience, we should detect and recompile apparmor profiles prior to reboot but after system-image updates has downloaded the new update. This always for the possibility of using a progress meter when compiling policy (which we currently cannot). Needs design input for when to do it and how the progress meter should look.
