Public bug reported:
I'm trying to snap a tool which uses awk. I checked the default apparmor
profile for any snap, and it seems to indicate that awk is installed and
enabled by the profile, but when checking (via a test snap),
/usr/bin/awk symlinks to /etc/alternatives/awk symlinks to /usr/bin/gawk
which doesn't exist (in ubuntu-core 16.04.0-24):
michael@dev-xenial2:~/dev/todo.txt⟫ cat /snap/todo/100001/testawk.sh
#! /bin/bash
ls -l /usr/bin/{,g,m}awk
ls -l /etc/alternatives/awk
/usr/bin/awk -h
/etc/alternatives/awk -h
michael@dev-xenial2:~/dev/todo.txt⟫ todo.testawk
ls: cannot access '/usr/bin/gawk': No such file or directory
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Mar 8 11:29 /usr/bin/awk -> /etc/alternatives/awk
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 117768 Mar 24 2014 /usr/bin/mawk
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Apr 12 14:18 /etc/alternatives/awk -> /usr/bin/gawk
/snap/todo/100001/testawk.sh: line 5: /usr/bin/awk: No such file or directory
/snap/todo/100001/testawk.sh: line 6: /etc/alternatives/awk: No such file or
directory
