Weird permission issues with APT in a priviledged LXC container?

Hi guys! I'm pretty new to Proxmox, but I feel like I've been doing pretty fine. However, I've run into this really weird issue where I cannot use APT to install some packages in my LXC container. I also had some issues earlier with Docker, but I fixed those by turning on nesting. However, now when I try to install a package I get told that APT can't access Perl and other parts of my kernel.
It definitely smells like an Apparmor thing, but I have no idea how to change anything in Apparmor, so I can't confirm. Apart from that, I have no idea what it could be or what I could do. AFAIK, everything is updated on both the host and guest, and while I had done a lot of weird forkery with disks and such on the host, I haven't touched anything with Apparmor or LXC configurations, so I'm at a bit of a loss. Can anyone help?

LXC Conf
apparmor.d attached below.


If there are any other logs/files anyone needs, please let me know. Thanks for the help!

I just created a privileged container with the same configuration and apt-get install openvpn works without such errors.

Did you maybe create an unprivileged container and then removed the unprivileged: 1?
Can you try again with an updated debian-10-standard_10.7-1_amd64.tar.gz template and create a privileged container from the start?

Hmm, possibly. I don't remember doing so, and I thought that you couldn't, but if Proxmox lets you than I definitely did as a step to try and fix my Docker, which turned out to be nesting. I'll try creating a new one, thanks!
