Incorrect 17-70 profile in LR for distortion correction - any ideas?

While trying to use the lens profiles that came with LR (3.6), I encountered that the profile for the distortion is wrong (for my shots). I am using K5-IIs (I don't if this matters). I saw a few times under different conditions the following: at 17 mm, there is a noticeable pincusion distortion. T
