Even after granting iotop-c the permissions required for nl_init to succeed, it was still missing the permissions required to re-nice processes. [ Test Plan ] * Run `sudo aa-status` and verify that an iotop-c profile is loaded * Launch iotop-c under sudo (make sure to invoke iotop-c directly instead of iotop, which might be symlinked to the distinct iotop-py) - Without the fix: iotop-c fails to launch due to permission denials in nl_init - With the fix: iotop-c should launch successfully * Attempt to set the ionice value of a running process using iotop-c, and verify that the operation succeeds [ Where problems could occur ] The additions to the iotop-c profile are loosening confinement on a profile. However, if a user manually modified the installed profiles, then the package upgrade would cause conflicts, and rejection of the incoming changes (either by hand during an interactive upgrade or automatically during an batch unattended upgrade) would result in end users not getting the packaged fix. [ Other Info ] --------Original bug description On a fresh installation of Kubuntu 25.04 in VirtualBox Installation of packages 1.26-1, 1.27-1 and 1.28-1 work, but program iotop-c does not start due to insufficient rights with output: nl_init: insufficient rights Interestingly, all three packages work on Kubuntu 24.10 Therefore, this appears to be a problem with the underlying operating system.
