I have Trisquel 6.0 and I don't plan on upgrading to 7 any time soon. I was wondering if there is a way to get the most recent version of abrowser because of security concerns.

According to Synaptic package manager the latest version of Abroswer is 23.0+build2-0ubuntu0.12.04.1+6.0trisquel5. But this doesn't seem like it is very up to date. How do I get the latest abrowser?

Trisquel 6 is not supported anymore. The Web browser is not the only program that can suffer from security issues. Why don't you want to update? It is probably easier than installing newer packages (requiring newer dependencies) on an outdated system.

If you were talking about Guix, earlier I linked the instructions for
doing it.

You can't the only thing to do if you are still using 6.0 (like me) is using firefox instead.

You could do what I do to get up-to-date packages for Trisquel 7, which
has a few packages, like Mumble, that are deprecated.

Install GNU Guix:

Then, install GNU IceCat:


guix package -i icecat
