@intrigeri: I was not aware that this profile is considered incomplete.
Ubuntu ships it in Firefox as it seems. Or did I misunderstand that?

The ultimate aim for AppArmor in Debian is to have each package install
their own profile an make the apparmor-profiles and
apparmor-profiles-extra package disappear on the long term.

Cheers!
