Install your choice of a 17.1 profile instead. There have been a number of significant changes with the introduction of 17.1, which will add to you workload unnecessarily if you first go with 17.0 and then you inevitably decide to upgrade to 17.1 some day in the future. --nextPart2508297.X9hSmTKtgW Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
