A few months passed and we almost finished with a long tail. To-be-deprecated profiles yet are: https://bugs.gentoo.org/673278 prefix/linux-standalone/ppc64 +prefix@, what is our plan here? Can we drop at least empty 'deprecated' file to notify users? https://bugs.gentoo.org/673276 hardened/linux/arm/armv6j hardened/linux/arm/armv7a hardened/linux/mips/mipsel/multilib/n32 hardened/linux/mips/mipsel/multilib/n64 hardened/linux/mips/mipsel/n32 hardened/linux/mips/mipsel/n64 hardened/linux/mips/multilib/n32 hardened/linux/mips/multilib/n64 hardened/linux/mips/n32 hardened/linux/mips/n64 hardened/linux/powerpc/ppc32 hardened/linux/powerpc/ppc64/32bit-userland hardened/linux/powerpc/ppc64/64bit-userland +hardened@ (and +arm@, +mips@, +ppc@, +ppc64) , is it fine to redirect these to vanilla 17.0 profiles? -- Sergei
