If you asked this question due to security reason, have you consider different approach? For example, running Electrum inside rootless docker and perform X11 forwarding.

I read it on whonix forum, I've tried to trace it again but I can't seem to find it
That could actually help on finding a clue with search engines, use website-specific search and force the words AppArmor profile and Electrum in the search.
In Google search, use this search string:
Code:
site:forums.whonix.org "apparmor profile" "Electrum"
That way, it'll only search in whonix forum and the result should include both "AppArmor profile" (exact phrase) and "Electrum", neither will be searched alone.
The results aren't promising but I wont click them all to check.

The first result with "apparmor-profile-everything" mentioned that it worked in Electrum: forums.whonix.org/t/using-apparmor-profile-everything-on-debian-buster/8650
AppArmor-profile-everything: github.com/Kicksecure/apparmor-profile-everything
But that's depreciated now and its successor "apparmor.d" doesn't have an Electrum profile in profiles a~f: github.com/roddhjav/apparmor.d/tree/main/apparmor.d/profiles-a-f

I saw an old Reddit post about Apparmor it is a security module to restrict programs or use for isolation but the Reddit that I found was posted 9 years ago.

Why not use Tails OS it seems that the AppArmor profile is enabled by default and Tails already has Electrum wallet but since it's using an old version you might need to upgrade it to the latest version.

I see, it shows that forum when searching but there's no specific thread discussing about this..

Hello everyone,

I'm wondering if there is an AppArmor profile available for Electrum? I've seen some discussions from a while back where people were talking about it, but I'm not sure if a profile was ever created. If anyone has information on this or can point me in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Thank you!
