Comment:

 Hi,

 This is expected behavior, the bundled theme is only available to first
 time installs, for existing sites we do not wish to be intrusive, and as
 such you have to go to the theme installer to download it your self (just
 searching for `twenty seventeen` should bring it up for you).

 We'll look at perhaps relaying that better with future releases though :)
