Public bug reported:
I have just run update-manager (29Apr2020) and restarted the laptop. On
restart I get the message 'firefox is already running'. I disabled the
apparmor profile for usr.bin.firefox and usr.lib.firefox.firefox and
could then run firefox.
Ubuntu-bug says that I have modified the apparmor profile, but while I
have written new profiles for skype and zoom, I have not touched any
pre-installed profiles.
So a firefox bug, or an apparmor bug?
