Public bug reported:

The network-interface-security upstart job unconditionally loads the
usr.sbin.dhclient AppArmor profile even if the job is running in a
LXC/LXD container that cannot load AppArmor policy.

I don't see any negative side effects from this behavior, so I don't
think this is a high priority bug. If this were to be fixed, the upstart
job would need to check to see if it is running inside of a container
and, if so, if the container is capable of loading its own AppArmor
security policy. See
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apparmor/2.10.95-4ubuntu5 for an
example of what this would look like.
