** Description changed:

  Both Firefox and Chromium in Ubuntu 21.10 cannot open files in
- /usr/local/doc and show a File-not-found error. IMO this is a bug
+ /usr/local/share/doc and show a File-not-found error. IMO this is a bug
  because this directory often contains HTML files from locally installed
  software that now cannot be browsed with these HTML browsers anymore.
  
  The cause is probably the apparmor configuration in
  /var/lib/snapd/apparmor/profiles/snap.firefox.firefox, which contains a
- read permission for /usr/doc, but not for /usr/local/doc.
+ read permission for /usr/share/doc, but not for /usr/local/share/doc.
