This is a structure from the devs in a file naming convention,
indicating its a 32bit app (x86_), that can be installed on a 64bit
operating system (_64), not necessarily a 64bit app. And in the case of
LO, it's definitely not yet a 64bit app. They still have to code 32bit
apps to be functional on 64bit O/S's, unlike a naitve 32bit app for a
32bit O/S.
Hope this explains it better.

Umm!!! factually no, LO is still 32bit on Linux
Then why is there an x86_64 version, when the 32 bit version should
also work well?
