Indexer worker small bug

Hello,

I think I submitted this before, but I am not sure this has been
addressed

I am using AppArmor with Dovecot, without any issue.

However, I think there is a bug in the indexer working, from what I can
see, a missing trailing slash. See:

------------
Dec 09 14:35:53 portal2 kernel: audit: type=1400
audit(1544366153.379:3035): apparmor="DENIED"
operation="file_mmap"
info="Failed name lookup - disconnected path" error=-13
profile="/usr/lib/dovecot/indexer-worker"
name="var/cache/nscd/hosts"
pid=10540 comm="indexer-worker" requested_mask="r"
denied_mask="r"
fsuid=1001 ouid=0
------------

The indexer worker is trying to open the file "var/cache/nscd/hosts"
instead of "/var/cache/nscd/hosts", which of course fails.

Can someone double check the code of the indexer worker, or this has
been fixed?

Thanks,
Andr?
