[apparmor] AppArmor dependency on python

[Viacheslav Salnikov]

Hi Tyler and John,


*The majority of the profile manipulation tools are now written in python.*
Could you please provide more detailed information about these tools? Like
a list, at least.





*$ (cd libraries/libapparmor && ./autogen.sh && ./configure \    && make &&
make check) && \   (cd binutils && make && make check) && \   (cd parser &&
make)*
Thank you, I will try.
