This is a long-term support distribution.
Don't expect those to have actual tip versions of any SW
package!
They rely on stabe versions that don't have the latest
features
but only those very well tested.
The semver 1.7 is not an unstable package. Its that their
reason for no updates?
LDC 1.7.0 includes major changes to the frontend and is not
well-tested.
If you want a better-tested recent LDC, I recommend LDC 1.6.0,
which is used in production at Weka.

I expected at least 1.6 to be available in the repo by now. I
remember the availability of LDC in ubuntu was celebrated
here...now it seem abandoned after such an effort. Maybe someone
from the team can answer what happened.
