Hello all,
  For CI testing of LDC with LLVM trunk we use CircleCI, which offers
Ubuntu Trusty 14.04. We use apt.llvm.org, but the latest update of the
"nightly" package is now more than a month ago. Previously the update
rate was once a week, which was OK as it meant that we only had a few
days of test breakage after an API change (and after a dev updated LDC
to build with a locally built LLVM trunk).

Is the current long update period just accidental, or should we no
longer expect a recent version of LLVM trunk for Ubuntu Trusty on
apt.llvm.org?

Thanks for the info!
  Johan
