[libvirt] [PATCH] Apparmor: Support Xen scripts in libexec

Upstream Xen has traditionally installed various hotplug and utility scripts in /etc/xen/scripts/. openSUSE is slowly moving all distribution provided configuration files and scripts from /etc to /usr. In the case of the Xen scripts provided under /etc/xen/scripts/, they will be moving to /usr/lib/xen/scripts/. Adjust the libvirtd Apparmor profile to allow executing scripts from this location.

I'm no AppArmor expert but this looks sane enough to me, so Reviewed-by: Andrea Bolognani <abologna@redhat.com> -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization

Thanks, but I think I should hold off pushing this until other distros make a similar change to the Xen scripts location. We are still debating on when to make the change in openSUSE :-). Sorry, I pulled the trigger a bit to early on this one. Regards, Jim

I don't think you necessarily need to wait for other distros to adopt the same change: in my mind, it's perfectly fine to have multiple distro-specific paths in the profile. If, however, there are literally zero distros using this specific path then yes, that makes it too soon :) -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
