Sorry I missed the updates (and also sorry/warning that I have not read the
thread very closely... brain entangled in various mental corners). Christian and
I had started to finally get rid of things we carry by properly upstreaming
things. Sadly about maybe halfway through and then other things popped up.
But for the special parsing, yes we both also thought that nowadays there is no
reason anymore to add the whole parsing stuff as everybody should be on versions
off apparmor supporting those things.

I cannot promise anything but maybe there will be a little bit of time next week
to give some better answers.
