Hi Manuel,
Please clarify one thing:do you need to retrieve package name (a.k.a. pkgId) or 
application name (appId)? What if there are multiple applications in a package?
Duringlast security workshop in Vannes in October, a requirement was formulated 
that AUL needs to identify application processes by fetching appId from a 
running process. I'd like to know if this requirement isstill valid. To 
implement it,I had to redesign Smack labeling for applications in
security-manager to be based on appId instead of pkgId. This is still work 
inprogress and it complicates matters for security-manager. If for any reason 
this is not needed anymore, I would be happy to go back to the old labeling 
scheme.


Best regards,
Rafal Krypa
