It should not be ubuntu-specific, it should be a KDE policy. But I now
see that the path has been changed since I reported this bug: now the
paths used by KDE are

/usr/share/accounts/{providers,services}/kde/

according to [1]. So, given that the current apparmor rules allow access
to anything under /usr/share/accounts/services/, we should be fine.

I'm just a bit puzzled because I don't see mc-5 being granted access to
/usr/share/accounts/providers/**, which IIRC should be needed regardless
of the KDE implementation -- but if you haven't received bugs about
that, it might be that I'm mistaken and that's not needed after all.

In any case, *this* patch I proposed is not needed, you can close this bug.

Ciao,
  Alberto
