22.2.2 Downloading a Profile
While creating a profile from scratch or updating an existing profile by processing reject
messages in the log, the AppArmor tools search the repository for a matching profile.
If the search is successful, the profile or the list of profiles is displayed and you can
view them and choose the one that best matches your setup. As soon as you have chosen
a profile, it gets copied to the local machine (to the
/etc/apparmor.d
directory)
and activated. Alternatively, you can choose to ignore the profile on the repository and
create your own one from scratch.
