I agree with the latter part of your assessment but not the former. I
had a look at /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.icedove to see if I had done any
changes. I saw I hadn't. If and when I make a change (although rarely
I do it) I always put up a comment/note telling/sharing about what I
changed and from where I got the idea.

I also saw the time-stamp and who has access rights and it shows root.
Whenever I make changes I usually end up giving it user-writable to
ensure I know it's me if I need to recall later.  In the above case
neither of the things occur.

If need be, will also send the file in question.

I can't reproduce this on any of my various installations nor has anyone
also reported similar behavior. I guess you probably have made manual
changes to that file and dpkg has ignored that file due different hash.

The package switch from icedove to thunderbird for the ApppArmor profile
was made in 5037bb57e85d8fcedfd523c200de0f5625a9365e in preparation for
45.6.0-1

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-mozilla/thunderbird.git/commit/?id=5037bb57e85d8fcedfd523c200de0f5625a9365e

So there can be normaly no left over cruft du the deinstallation of
previous installed icedove packages.

Carsten
