Bug Description

I am one of the lifelines developers
lifelines 3.0.61 is a 32 bit architecture application, it will eventually core dump and corrupt it's generated databases if built and run as a 64 bit application. Generating lots of noise on the lifelines mailing list but apparently no debian maintainers look there.

There are 2 solutions
1. only release lifelines 3.0.61 on intel/amd arch's as a i386 package
   (bad, head stuck in mud, solution, not to mention debians push to
   upgrade to 64 bit apps).
2. upgrade to version 3.2.0 which has been ported to 64 bit architectures.
   it is available on the current lifelines development archives at
   github.com/lifelines/lifelines

Please remove any 3.0.xx or 3.1.xx 64 bit built packages, as they only corrupt user databases
and if you insist on shipping 3.0.61 only ship 32 bit versions which are stable on both
i386 and amd64 architectures. But it is an old and no longer supported version.
