Known bugs are tracked on the meta issue **[#75](https://github.com/roddhjav/apparmor.d/issues/74)**.
!!! info
Usually, a profile in complain mode cannot break the program it confines.
However, there are some **major exceptions**:
* `deny` rules are enforced even in complain mode,
* `attach_disconnected` (and `mediate_deleted`) will break the program if they are required and missing in the profile,
* If apparmor does not find the profile to transition `rPx`.
### Pacman "could not get current working directory"
```sh
$ sudo pacman -Syu
...
error: could not get current working directory
:: Processing package changes...
...
```
This is **a feature, not a bug!** It can safely be ignored. Pacman tries to get your current directory. You will only get this error when you run pacman in your home directory.
According to the Archlinux guideline, on Archlinux, packages cannot install files under `/home/`. Therefore, the [`pacman`][pacman] profile purposely does not allow access of your home directory.
This provides a basic protection against some packages (on the AUR) that may have rogue install script.

### Gnome can be very slow to start.
[Gnome](https://github.com/roddhjav/apparmor.d/issues/80) can be slow to start. This is a known bug, help is very welcome.
The complexity is that:
- It works fine without AppArmor
- It works fine on most system (including test VM)
- It seems to be dbus related
- On archlinux, the dbus mediation is not enabled. So, there is nothing special to allow.
