Rockbox is a volunteer effort. Would you like to volunteer to compiled a newer version for 64-bit?

Because nobody built a new binary. You can always compile from source, and most open source projects don't provide binaries of their releases anyway. Feel free to contribute.

Actually a 64bit version of RockboxUtility isn't needed. I'm running a 64Bit Linux and it works fine for me.
Please correct me, if I talk rubbish.

But if you update the source code on the site, I'll compile it.

Which source? The download server does have a source tarball of the latest release. It's wrong in the wiki page though, but that doesn't mean it's not there ;)

I though that the version on the svn is in development and isn't released yet.
I compiled the source code now.
