In some cases, the return value of name_to_prof_filename() is undefined.
This happens when deleting the to-be-confined binary while running
aa-genprof and leads to a not-too-helpful
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apparmor/aa.py", line 265, in enforce
prof_filename, name = name_to_prof_filename(path)
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable
(reported by maslen on IRC)
This patch makes sure name_to_prof_filename() always returns None, None
(instead of undefined aka just None) so that at least the caller can
successfully split it into two None values.
For the exotic aa-genprof usecase given above, this at least improves
the error message to
Can't find $binary_name
(raised by enforce() via fatal_error())
The patch also changes fatal_error() to display the traceback first, and
the human-readable message at the end, which makes it more likely that
the user actually notices the human-readable message.
Acked-by: Kshitij Gupta <kgupta8592@gmail.com> for both trunk and 2.9.
Known Bugs:
Will allow multiple letters in the () due to translation/unicode issues with regexing the key.
User input will probably bug out in a different locale.
