Long term support?!? Be nice for this fix to be applied to Precise....
Will probably end up using jeremiejig's fix for the time being (1,600
machines. Don't want to have to remove apparmor).

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: chromium-browser

  [Impact]
  Chromium-browser does not launch from guest session.

  Fix by Jamie Strandboge:
  "It would be nice if AppArmor could merge profiles, but we can't yet, so we need to do like you initially did: have two mostly identical profiles. Because the lightdm remote sessions are shipping policy copies, the maintenance cost is getting high. I will be abstracting out the guest rules into abstracations/lightdm and then have a small snippet using a child profile in abstractions/lightdm_chromium-browser. The guest and remote lightdm profiles can just include these and all the policy is in the abstractions. Using a lightdm.d directory is a good idea, but upstream AppArmor is currently discussing how to best handle .d directories like this, and I'd rather not add another one until that discussions is finished."

  [Test Case]
  Login to the guest account after booting in Ubuntu Precise and try to run Chromium-browser.

  [Regression Potential]
  Upstream work on AppArmor was considered here and a child profile was added not touching the other policies so the regression potential is pretty low.
