[apparmor] [Bug 1180230] [NEW] glob in aa-genprof repeats same option

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Seth Arnold (seth-arnold) has assigned this bug to you for AppArmor:

When using glob, the glob does not check if the entries mentioned
previously is repeated or not. Using a simple check to match against the
previous entry will solve this and prevent such long pointless lists.

I'm assuming this is a problem with the AppArmor library based in Perl. I'm trying to work a way to fix it.
(BTW, my first bug report ever.)
