1. Uploaded apparmor to hardy-proposed to fix this bug. apparmor 2.1+1075-0ubuntu9 did not allow access to /var/lib/samba/*.tdb, which can break any application that is protected by apparmor, accesses pam, and has libpam-smbpass installed.

2. apparmor 2.1+1075-0ubuntu9.1 fixes this by providing /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/smbpass and updates /etc/abstractions/authentication to include it

3. debdiff is attached for review

4. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/217787/comments/18 for how to reproduce the bug.

5. Regression potential is considered negligible, as the change only allows for more access to the filesystem.
