| Jan 6, 2013 at 4:47 | comment | added | user25656 | @mateo_salta, it's a difference in perception probably because I don't have enough experience. I though that "What is Apparmor" is too broadly scoped rather than specific. The question about whether apparmor is "working well" is legitimate and appears specific but a little searching would show that there isn't a "straight" answer and would depend on a case-to-case and user-to-user scenario. | |

| Jan 5, 2013 at 5:10 | comment | added | user25656 | "So, if someone is asking a question and your answer is to link to an entire chapter of the Ubuntu wiki, then likely the question is terrible and offtopic and needs to be rescoped. We're here to answer people's specific questions about a topic, not replace wikipedia." Exactly. I appreciate that aspect of Ask Ubuntu. But What is apparmor? and to a lesser extent, How can I tell that apparmor is working? made me ask the question (and comment in those questions). | |
