My 32bit machines received the abrowser 31 update a couple of days ago, but I was surprised to see that my 64bit machines stayed with version 30. Now I see by looking at the following page that the update doesn't seem to exist (yet) for amd64: http://packages.trisquel.info/toutatis-updates/web/

Is this some bug in the build process, or building the amd64 version requires some special treatment?

Building the amd64 versions does not require special treatment. Meanwhile, you can use IceCat, which is updated to version 31.

Why is abrowser/icecat in the "trisquel-updates" repository instead of the "security" one?

So is there a reason that the 64-bit version hasn't been available in the repos? Did anyone ever figure this out?

i386 31.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1+6.0.1trisquel27

(from http://packages.trisquel.info/toutatis-updates/abrowser)

You can use my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~legimet/+archive/ubuntu/abrowser-kde.
It contains Abrowser and IceCat with KDE integration. If you want the KDE integration, install abrowser-kde-support or icecat-kde-support. The packages work fine without KDE integration though, and you can use them with any DE.

I was wondering if it is possible to add xul-ext-torproxy to your repository so other users could benefit from the use of icecat on their computers (thinking how an alternative to NextDRMfox) :)

I already did :)
But I just wanted to note, if you don't use KDE, there's no reason to use my PPA. If you use the official repo (http://devel.trisquel.info/icecat/) you'll get the packages more quickly.

I think it's awesome that Legimet has made his PPA available but I don't understand why nobody wants to answer the question of why abrowser 31 for 64-bit Trisquel isn't in the repos. It seems a reasonable enough question considering that 32-bit Trisquel has it.

Is this an error? Is this intentional?

I think no one knows except Ruben. I filed a bug: https://trisquel.info/en/issues/12276. But Firefox 32 is coming in 6 days anyway.
