Package: akonadi-server
Version: 4:20.04.1-2+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I have defined my XDG variables to point outside of $HOME since this lies in an
NFS server with a small quota. The ones I have defined are XDG_CACHE_HOME,
XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_DATA_HOME.

After I have upgraded my system to bullseye/testing akonadi cannot start,
complaining that it cannot create $XDG_DATA_HOME/akonadi (although it get's
eventually created) and that it cannot copy Akonadi.error to Akonadi.error.old.

If I remove completely file /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.akonadiserver then akonadi
seems to try to start, although then I get other mysql problems which probably
should go in a different bug :)

Hey,

actually you havn't configured AppArmor correctly. You need to add all 
directories to @{HOMEDIRS} either by:

dpkg-reconfigure apparmor

or by uncommenting the @{HOMEDIR} in /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home.d/
site.local and update it accordingly.

see https://bugs.debian.org/1025162 for more information.

If you are unhappy with this solution, please open an bugreport against 
AppArmor to support XDG variables.

Regards,

hefee
