Package: apparmor
Version: 4.1.0-1

With the 6.17.6+deb14-amd64 kernel, apparmor.service takes time
to finish: when I booted, I got a message of the form
[ *] Job apparmor.service/start running (16s / no limit)
$ journalctl --no-pager -b -u apparmor.service
Nov 07 17:40:26 cventin systemd[1]: Starting apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles...
Nov 07 17:40:26 cventin apparmor.systemd[624]: Restarting AppArmor
Nov 07 17:40:26 cventin apparmor.systemd[624]: Reloading AppArmor profiles
Nov 07 17:40:46 cventin systemd[1]: Finished apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles.
So it took 20 seconds.
As a comparison, with the 6.16.12+deb14+1-amd64 kernel, I had
$ journalctl --no-pager -b -1 -u apparmor.service
Oct 30 14:48:36 cventin systemd[1]: Starting apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles...
Oct 30 14:48:36 cventin apparmor.systemd[706]: Restarting AppArmor
Oct 30 14:48:36 cventin apparmor.systemd[706]: Reloading AppArmor profiles
Oct 30 14:48:36 cventin systemd[1]: Finished apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles.
(and this was similar with the previous kernels).
