I found 64-bit binaries.

Explanation:  I updating my Keon phone to FirefoxOS 1.2 (the 'push' from
the FirefoxOS simulator seems to be broken in the older systems.  Hence
I need a bleeding edge aurora/firefox and FirefoxOS).

The binary distributions of Aurora
(http://www.mozilla.org/en/firefox/channel/#aurora/aurora-desktop) are
32-bit, but it was trival, if a long process, to compile it from source.

The keon's system is distributed in a binary form by GeeksPhone
(http://downloads.geeksphone.com/) along with the binary 'adb' and
'fastboot'.  In 32-bit.

Turns out that adb and fastboot are in the android-tools-adb
android-tools-fastboot packages.  So problem solved.  (Next problem will
be dealing with my bricked phone....  One thing at a time)

Puzzelled that ldd and file gave me contradictory results.  Is it
actually because the fastboot is compiled for the wrong architeture?

Keon$ uname -m
x86_64

and

Keon$ file ./adb
./adb: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped

??

It has been so long since I have worked with programmes I have not
compiled myself or are from the repository I am a little rusty.
