Bug Description

Kubuntu uses the oxygen gtk theme by default.
It reads some kde config files and icons and calls kde4-config.
This is not yet covered by abstractions/gnome.

Attaching a patch that adds the necessary rules.
The /usr/share/kubuntu-*-settings/{kde4-profile/default/,} globbing is required because there are a few kubuntu settings packages that add their path to the kde config search paths.
For example
/usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde4-profile/default/share/config/kdeglobals
/usr/share/kubuntu-netbook-default-settings/share/config/kdeglobals
/usr/share/kubuntu-low-fat-settings/share/config/kdeglobals

I have also created a profile for kde4-config but I'm not sure if that's suitable to be included in apparmor.

Thanks for the patch! I'm uncomfortable with adding this to the gnome abstraction. IMHO this should be in the kde abstraction. Also, we will be moving away from using Ux in shipped abstractions (patches pending), so I am NAKing the 'kde4-config Ux' part. Personally, I would be open to a child profile in the ked abstration for it, but I think ultimately this needs to be discussed on the mailing list.

I tihink it doesn't make sense to add it to the kde abstraction since KDE applications don't use the gtk theme.
To work out of the box for kde/kubuntu users the rules need to be in gnome.
If that's not acceptable maybe it should go into an own abstraction.

Is this patch still valid on 14.04 or 14.10?
