[Bug 994926] Re: empathy accounts not stored

Unfortunately, being able to relocate home directories is very typical
on *nix systems from my experience.  The best possible case would be to
somehow search /etc/passwd for home directories and only allow it to run
out of those on a per-user basis.  This isn't necessarily relevant to
Empathy or Telepathy, rather a Ubuntu/apparmor design issue.

After even further digging, it appears that instead of editing
/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home as I did, the correct way of handling this
is to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure apparmor" which will prompt you for
additional home directory locations.  Those get added to
/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home.d/ubuntu (which says it's automatically
generated and therefore shouldn't be edited directly).
