Public bug reported:

Hi, I'm using dovecot on a computer that I use as half server, half
media center, and I get a lot of popup messages of AppArmor complaining
about dovecot processes doing stuff.

Looking at the kern.log as stated in the messages, I can see stuff like
these:

Jun 20 01:49:24 omicron kernel: [  962.491873] audit: type=1400
audit(1466380164.941:90): apparmor="ALLOWED" operation="sendmsg"
info="Failed name lookup - disconnected path" error=-13
profile="/usr/lib/dovecot/log" name="run/systemd/journal/dev-log"
pid=2175 comm="log" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w" fsuid=0 ouid=0

Or:

Jun 20 01:41:24 omicron kernel: [  482.417903] audit: type=1400
audit(1466379684.909:72): apparmor="ALLOWED" operation="open"
profile="/usr/lib/dovecot/auth" name="/run/dovecot/stats-user" pid=5203
comm="auth" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w" fsuid=0 ouid=0

This is extremely annoying. I'm not an expert writing rules for
apparmor, but I have the feeling I shouldn't need to, at least from a
very shallow look it seems like those operations are legal and needed
for dovecot to operate, so why aren't included in the shipped aparmor
profiles?

Thanks!
