I have ordered a System76 desktop preloaded with Ubuntu 13.10 and Firefox. At apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/adblock-plus/, it only shows "Ubuntu 10.04" under "Available versions."

1As a side note, I recommend using http://gaenserich.github.io/hostsblock/ (which includes a DEB file as well) instead of "Adblock Plus" addon for a better solution ;-) – Sadi Feb 08 '14 at 08:54

Assuming that you're referring to the ad block add-on for Firefox. Well, I'm quiet confused as to which you're referring to as apps.ubuntu.com; but I just had a quick look installing into my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (with the latest Firefox 27.0 version) which seems working fine.
If I'm not mistaken; Add-on support will effect only the web browser but not the operating system (correct me If I'm wrong). Also on the add-on download itself says that it support from Firefox 17.0 and later (as seen below); (that leads me to say, it should work for firefox version 17.0 and later)

It doesnt depend on any desktop OS like linux, mac or windows. If you have Firefox installed, Adblock is just a add on, so it will work definitely.
