+  * From Linux 4.13.10-1, AppArmor is enabled by default.  This allows
+    defining a "profile" for each installed program that can mitigate
+    security vulnerabilities in it.  However, an incorrect profile might
+    disable some functionality of the program.
+
+    In case you suspect that an AppArmor profile is incorrect, see
+    <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/11/msg00178.html> and
+    consider reporting a bug in the package providing the profile.  The
+    profile may be part of the program's package or apparmor-profiles.
