Good point. But since I have not explicitly installed apparmor and thus
don't know how to use it (was installed during an update I guess), I
didn't really bothered.

Didn't work, same error message.

To be correct, I just reinstalled it.

Stopped apparmor then tried to start apache2, but same problem.

Yeah, I think I'm gonna have to do that.

But I must say it's a bit shitty because "before", all I had to do to
run apache was 'apt install apache2'. Don't understand why this apparmor
thing is screwing my habits…

Thanks for your help and pointers.
