There are a number of third-party binary executables that I use
regularly on my Gentoo systems.  These are dynamically linked, x86-64,
programs that typically depend on various X11 and Qt/Gtk libraries.
They were either extracted from .rpm/.deb files or distributed as
shell-archive self-installers by their respective vendors.

Is switching to the new 17.0 profile likely to break them?
