This bubbled back up in the sponsorship queue due to the recent comment
activity.  However, you say:

> this "fix" just eliminates harmless warnings, which is not worth
backporting to old releases.

It appears there is nothing here to be sponsored currently, so I am
unsubscribing the ubuntu-sponsors team.  Please resubscribe us if that
changes.

  Apparmor Disallows Disabling Dhclient Scripts

Bug description:
  In some cases, it may be desirable to disable dhclient scripts. By
  default /sbin/dhclient-script is used, and some others are allowed by
  the apparmor profile.

  Without Apparmor, disabling hook scripts can be accomplished with
  flags -sf /bin/true, but with apparmor enabled this gets blocked:

  execve (/bin/true, ...): Permission denied

  Unfortunately dhclient doesn't appear to provide any other mechanism
  for disabling hook scripts.
