A normal user has to run an application using sudo just to build a
profile. This is ludicrous and counter-productive. The profile generated
should optionally be saved elsewhere.

For example:

$ aa-genprof /usr/games/armagetronad

Will fail because /etc/apparmor.d is not writeable. The workaround is
horrible:

$ sudo aa-genprof /usr/games/armagetronad

I really don't want to run something like armagetronad as the super-
user. :-/
