Hello Timo, or anyone else affected,

Accepted llvm-toolchain-3.6 into yakkety-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-toolchain-3.6/1:3.6.2-3ubuntu4 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.
