This problem has already been reported for at least some of the packages
involved.
The real issue is changes in the Linux kernel security model which, in
turn, require a slightly different syntax for AppArmor rules. Those
rules are not 100% compatible with those needed for 2.6.28 kernels used

This is a very common bug report, see e. g. bug 429863 or bug 429880.
Instead of trying to work arond this in a bazillion packages, is it
possible to catch that situation in AppArmor itself and disable itself
until the next boot into the karmic kernel?
** Also affects: apparmor (Ubuntu)
I keep the other tasks open for now, but if it is possible to fix this
centrally in apparmor, they can be invalidated.
Most packages either reload apparmor or call apparmor_parser -r
$APP_PROFILE.

This is a known issue and something that is being worked on. Assigning
to John and will follow-up with him.

Based on converstion in #ubuntu-devel on IRC, this can and will be
handled in apparmor. Invalidating the other bugs.
