Binary package hint: apparmor
I was trying to test Digikam's database migration to the "internal server" MySQL mode. It failed every time and I couldn't figure out why. Later I was looking in the kernel logs for another reason and saw these lines:

I'm not sure if this should be reported against apparmor, mysql-server, or digikam.

Thank you for using Ubuntu and reporting a bug. The digikam packaging should be updated like akonadi's to use a wrapper script and separate apparmor profile.
