No hardenex x86 profile 17.0
I tried switching to the vanilla profile but it is indeed vanilla, the
hardened use flag was disabled. For the time being I'm staying with the
old profile, is the new one in the works?

As you can figure out from <portage_tree>/profiles/profiles.desc hardened
sub profile for 17.0 is only available for amd64 architecture but even that
is signified as dev and not stable.

So, for now just stay with old stable hardened profiles.

I had assumed it was ok since it hit the official tree and was a natural
upgrade, I'll make it a point to check the desc file every time I switch.

Will do.
Thanks
