AppArmor error running privileged docker container on machine executor

I’m using test-kitchen to test on CircleCI 2.0 with the machine executor. The job fails when trying to start ntpd in the container complaining permission denied when accessing the shared object:

/usr/sbin/ntpd: error while loading shared libraries: libopts.so.25: cannot stat shared object: Permission denied

dmesg shows apparmor is blocking it.

The AppArmor error is only triggered when running kitchen-docker in privileged mode. I’m not sure why.

I’m not familiar with AppArmor; can it be turned off?
