Title:
  the guest account apparmor profile blocks things that seem useful

Status in Light Display Manager:

Status in “lightdm” source package in Precise:

Bug description:
  The Oneiric apparmor profile generates quite some syslog noise including warning about:
  gwibber
  unity upgrade scripts
  fusermount (gvfs?)
  gnome-keyring
  system-config-printer debug

  Is that wanted or is the profile too restrictive and should allow at
  least some of those uses?
