apparmor did not ship the tunable before that commit:

Agreed. That's what I've proposed on #1152846 with a patch a few days ago.

I'll now be AFK until November 16; help is welcome to solve this;
I was tempted to propose a NMU to a delayed queue but Vincent's
message made me doubt, so I've been waited for clarification there.

Cheers,
