openSUSE uses a script to update the smbd profile based on the samba
config - with the advantage for users that it "just works"[tm] and the
advantage for me that I don't get bugreports about the smbd profile
anymore ;-)

Maybe Ubuntu wants to steal ;-) this script?

Title:
  Samba profile in Lucid prevents smbd from accessing /srv/samba

Status in “apparmor” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apparmor

  Official documentation for 9.10 (
  https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html )
  recommends to create folders to share in /srv/samba/ - however, it
  seems that the apparmor profile for smbd is preventing it to access
  that folder, therefore making it impossible to share folders in that
  folder unless the smbd profile is turned off or in complain mode.

  Maybe a warning in smb.conf about apparmor restricting the folders
  smbd can share would be worth it too? I can imagine quite a few people
  having issues sharing folders outside of /srv, not imagining apparmor
  would be blocking that :)
