I just did an apt upgrade on a Ubuntu 17.04 box and saw this:
67% [49 gcc-7 9,740 kB/32.3 MB 30%]
then
Get:49 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-toolchain-r/test/ubuntu zesty/main amd64 gcc-7 amd64 7-20170407-0ubuntu2 [32.3 MB]


Did we go from gcc-5 in 16.04 to 7 in 17.04? And here I was still thinking gcc-6 was hotness.

I certainly do not have GCC 7.

Judging by the link, you have installed it from a PPA, probably connected to ubuntu-toolchain, also note the word test in the link.
