This is the profile of Simon Déziel, in which I replaced all occurrences of Thunderbird by Icedove.
We could still delete the lines giving access to sound / microphone in there though.

I propose to ship it in Tails for the time being.

I’d be glad to know what would be the procedure to do so? Should I simply add it to our Debian package?

I’m not convinced that the overhead of maintaining this delta is cheaper than actually having the upstream profile support Icedove, but I don’t have the big picture in mind, and I trust you to make the right decision here.

For the time being, there is no such thing as “our Debian package”. We ship the one from Debian. So the procedure would be to add the profile to the main Tails Git tree, in config/chroot_local-includes/etc/apparmor.d/.

Hint: testing in the context of Tails is critical since we use crazy AppArmor aliases that sometimes require to adjust profiles (see the corresponding design doc for details), and especially testing with persistence enabled is a must since our bind-mounts also sometimes force us to adjust AA profiles. Not sure if our automated test suite does all that yet.

• Parent task deleted (Bug #10750)

Bug #10750 was assigned to me for QA, which means that it’s not blocked by Bug #11058. Ergo, Bug #11058 can’t be a subtask of Bug #10750.
