I uploaded 4.7.2-1~exp1 to experimental (which you must install on top of unstable) a couple of days ago. The packages are still in the NEW queue pending manual review and approval. And because this is experimental, this compiler is for experimental purposes only and no libraries, besides libgnat, built with it. I don't think I'll spend much time working on 4.7, Debian 8 "Jessie" will probably have 4.8 (or later) instead. -- Ludovic Brenta.
