Title:
  The org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() method
  is deprecated

Status in content-hub package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in media-hub package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When upstream D-Bus merged the AppArmor mediation patches, they did
  not like the GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() bus method.
  Instead, they decided to expose a peer's AppArmor context using the
  org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionCredentials() bus method. All users
  of the GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() method should switch to
  the GetConnectionCredentials() method as soon as possible so that
  Ubuntu can drop the patch that implements
  GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() by the time 16.04 LTS is
  released.

  In order to switch to the new method, you'll need to depend on
  libapparmor 2.10 or newer.

  I'll be adding example code that illustrates how to switch from
  GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext() to GetConnectionCredentials().
