The profile itself is broken. Syslog-ng has its executable in /usr/sbin (equery -f syslog-ng | grep syslog-ng) while the profile is named (/etc/apparmor.d/)sbin.syslog-ng. Instead the profile (in /etc/apparmor.d) must be renamed to usr.sbin.syslog-ng. After that it also needs to be adjusted. To get out of this: 1. as root, in /etc/apparmor.d/, cp sbin.syslog-ng usr.sbin.syslog-ng 2. reload apparmor service, e.g. /etc/init.d/apparmor reload 3. let it settle for a while, still printing out errors/ warnings to /var/log/messages 4. run aa-genprof /usr/sbin/syslog-ng The last step will suggest some modifications of the existing profile. You can skip/ quit at any time. It will suggest some read-permissions and at least one additional write-permission depending on the syslog-ng-settings. (Basically it spills out on TTY12, too.) I can confirm that syslog-ng runs fine without any of the modifications mentioned here. But it spills the log with pointless warnings. (I assume syslog-ng's config is on purpose and writing log to TTY12 is intentional.)
