[Bug 2011628] Re: Apparmor Disallows Disabling Dhclient Scripts

Actually, it popped back up in our queue because Christian had targeted
the bug to the stable releases - not because of the comment activity.
In any case, nothing currently here for sponsorship.

Bug description:
  In some cases, it may be desirable to disable dhclient scripts. By
  default /sbin/dhclient-script is used, and some others are allowed by
  the apparmor profile.

  Without Apparmor, disabling hook scripts can be accomplished with
  flags -sf /bin/true, but with apparmor enabled this gets blocked:

  execve (/bin/true, ...): Permission denied

  Unfortunately dhclient doesn't appear to provide any other mechanism
  for disabling hook scripts.
