ebarrettomcphail, have you seen the email thread answer from amurray ?11:50
mcphailebarretto: no - haven't been included in any emails since 12th April where Alex had suggested an update in a few days11:53
ebarrettomcphail, yes, that's the one. I think they still need a couple more days. amurray might be able to confirm tomorrow as he is already EOD by now I think 11:54
mcphailOk, thanks ebarretto. Happy to hold off if there is progress but coming up to a very busy period at work just now and keen to get simple things tidied up11:58
amurraymcphail: apologies again .. I'm just checking once more with the associated development team (my contact their appears to be offline atm and I'm about to go to bed myself but will post back in my morning what their response is)13:08
mcphailThanks amurray . Sorry to keep troubling you13:39
UnivrslSuprBoxThere's a change in `apparmor (4.0.1-0ubuntu1) oracular` described as "Add condition in policydb serialization to only encode xtable if kernel_supports_permstable32". This change allows oracular's apparmor_parser to load `abstractions/opencl-pocl` on Ubuntu kernel 5.15 from jammy. noble's apparmor_parser cannot load that abstraction into jammy's kernel.16:51
UnivrslSuprBoxI unfortunately have a usecase where I'm doing just that (loading noble's policy into jammy's kernel) which I know is worth telling me to go away for16:51
UnivrslSuprBoxBut, is that change candidate for backport from oracular to noble?16:52
ebarrettogeorgiag, ^16:53
UnivrslSuprBoxHappy to file bugs and do any needful there, but I didn't want to start with that if the answer here was "kindly go pound sand" :P16:55
georgiagUnivrslSuprBox: yes, that change is on its way onto the noble apparmor package. we had to wait until it was in oracular to start the SRU process. I'm tracking the SRU here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apparmor/+bug/206467217:04
-ubottu:#ubuntu-security- Launchpad bug 2064672 in apparmor (Ubuntu) "[SRU] - fixes for apparmor on noble" [Undecided, New]17:04
georgiagUnivrslSuprBox: that scenario is not that uncommon given that you could have a noble lxd container running on jammy, which would be using jammy's kernel... if you need it urgently, you could use the ppa I linked in the bug https://launchpad.net/~georgiag/+archive/ubuntu/apparmor-4.0.1-redo/+packages, since it's going to take a couple of weeks to complete the SRU process17:06
UnivrslSuprBoxOh, excellent. Thank you!17:06
georgiagUnivrslSuprBox: no problem. let me know if you run into any issues17:06
