It should, though there may be bugs that prevent all features
from working. If you don't need aa-logprof, aa-genprof, aa-enforce,
aa-status, etc. in your environments, you don't even need any of the
python tools. What are you going to be doing in the yocto environments? Do
you need the higher-level tools at all?

The apparmor builds in Ubuntu are dependent on python3 because it seems
most useful for our users. From the wily buildlogs[1]:

| # Build pythons
| for py in python2.7 python3.4 python3.5 ; do \
|         cp -a /«PKGBUILDDIR»/libraries/libapparmor /«PKGBUILDDIR»/libraries/libapparmor.$py && \
|         PYTHON=/usr/bin/$py dh_auto_configure \
|                 -D libraries/libapparmor.$py -- --with-python && \
|         PYTHON=/usr/bin/$py dh_auto_build \
|                 -D libraries/libapparmor.$py; \
| done

When you're building the libraries, try setting the PYTHON environment
variable to the path of your python interpreter, as done above. (Ignore
the rest of the dh_auto_* stuff, the important part is the PYTHON
environment variable before calling configure.)

Thanks
