To make the collection complete:
Acked-By: Christian Boltz <apparmor at cboltz.de>

Please also backport both patches to the 2.8 branch.


As a side effect of the abstractions/base patch, we should also clean up 
the usr.sbin.nscd profile (which includes abstractions/base):

To avoid trouble with *.rpmnew files etc., this small patch shouldn't be
backported to 2.8.
