hi! what is the difference between 10-11 profiles vs 12-16?
what v2refpolicy profiles are? i didn't find any mentions on them. according to selinux handbook - only 10-11 should be use. so what are v2refpolicies profiles for?

Available profile symlink targets:
[1] default/linux/amd64/10.0
[2] default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop
[3] default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop/gnome
[4] default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop/kde
[5] default/linux/amd64/10.0/developer
[6] default/linux/amd64/10.0/no-multilib
[7] default/linux/amd64/10.0/server
[8] hardened/linux/amd64/10.0
[9] hardened/linux/amd64/10.0/no-multilib *
[10] selinux/2007.0/amd64
[11] selinux/2007.0/amd64/hardened
[12] selinux/v2refpolicy/amd64
[13] selinux/v2refpolicy/amd64/desktop
[14] selinux/v2refpolicy/amd64/developer
[15] selinux/v2refpolicy/amd64/hardened
[16] selinux/v2refpolicy/amd64/server

Do not use the v2refpolicy, it's still seems to be in development and could even decrease security instead of increasing it:

Also (but you already know that I guess):

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/selinux/selinux-handbook.xml?part=2&chap=1

States:

Important: Do not use any profiles other than the ones listed above, even if they seem to be out of date. SELinux profiles are not necessarily created as often as default Gentoo profiles.
