> Hrmmm, I thought this was fixed in the parser.

No ;-)

I just tested (with the 2.11 beta1 parser): as soon as I create a force-
complain symlink, the profile gets parsed on every reload. I also get a
warning:

    Warning failed to create cache: usr.sbin.httpd2-prefork

Title:
  Use force-complain symlinks instead of hard-coded "complain" flags

Status in AppArmor:
  New
Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am using apparmor-profiles in Xenial.

  The AppArmor profiles, by default, are set to "complain" mode by way
  of "flag=(complain)" directives written into the profiles themselves.

  If I want these profiles to be enforced, then I have to edit each one
  and manually delete the directives (or use the aa-enforce utility to
  perform the same edits for me).

  This then results in modified config files, which will give me grief
  if and when the profiles are updated. I can accept the inconvenience
  of merging if I've made significant changes. But given that all I'm
  doing is switching from "complain" to "enforce", and that there is
  already a good mechanism for specifying this outside of the profiles
  themselves (removing symlinks from the "disable" or "force-complain"
  subdirs), this significantly impairs the usability of a security
  feature that sorely needs wider adoption.

  [tl;dr] Please remove all "complain" flags from the profiles, and
  replace them with corresponding symlinks in the "force-complain"
  subdirectory.
