[Bug 1217710] Re: Message about AppArmor mediation status goes to stderr instead of stdout

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package dbus - 1.6.12-0ubuntu5

---------------
dbus (1.6.12-0ubuntu5) saucy; urgency=low

  * Add support for mediation of D-Bus messages and services. AppArmor D-Bus
    rules are described in the apparmor.d(5) man page. dbus-daemon will use
    libapparmor to perform queries against the AppArmor policies to determine
    if a connection should be able to send messages to another connection, if
    a connection should be able to receive messages from another connection,
    and if a connection should be able to bind to a well-known name.
    - debian/patches/aa-build-tools.patch: Update build files to detect and
      build against libapparmor
    - debian/patches/aa-mediation.patch: Support AppArmor mediation of D-Bus
      messages and services. By default, AppArmor mediation is enabled if
      AppArmor is available. To disable AppArmor mediation, place
      '<apparmor mode="disabled"/>' in each bus configuration file. See the
      dbus-daemon(1) man page for more details.
    - debian/patches/aa-get-connection-apparmor-security-context.patch: Add an
      org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext method that
      takes the unique name of a connection as input and returns the AppArmor
      label attached to the connection
    - debian/patches/aa-kernel-compat-check.patch: Perform a compatibility
      check of dbus, libapparmor, and the AppArmor kernel code during
      initialization to determine if everything is in place to perform
      AppArmor mediation. This is a temporary patch to overcome some potential
      incompatabilities during the Saucy development release and should be
      dropped prior to Saucy's release.
    - debian/control: Add libapparmor-dev as a Build-Depends
    - debian/rules: Specify that D-Bus should be built against libapparmor
      during the configure stage of the build
  * debian/patches/aa-mediation.patch: Clean up the AppArmor initialization
    - Don't treat any errors from aa_is_enabled() as fatal unless the AppArmor
      D-Bus mode is set to "required". This should fix errors when various
      test cases need to start dbus-daemon on buildds. (LP: #1217598)
    - Don't print to stderr during initialization unless an error has
      occurred (LP: #1217710)
    - Don't redefine _dbus_warn() to syslog(). A previous comment left in the
      code suggested that _dbus_warn() caused segfaults. Testing proves that
      is not the case.
  * debian/patches/aa-get-connection-apparmor-security-context.patch: Refresh
    patch to fix offset warnings after modifying aa-mediation.patch

Title:
  Message about AppArmor mediation status goes to stderr instead of
  stdout

Status in “dbus” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  dbus 1.6.12-0ubuntu4 added AppArmor mediation of messages. When dbus-
  daemon is initializing itself, it prints "AppArmor D-Bus mediation is
  enabled" to confirm that mediation will be performed. The message is
  incorrectly printed to stderr instead of stdout:

  $ dbus-daemon --session 2>/dev/null
  ^C
  $ dbus-daemon --session 1>/dev/null
  AppArmor D-Bus mediation is enabled

  ^C
