The problem is and the teamviewer_linux_x64.deb has dependencies problems. It isn ' t recommended for distributions using Multiarch (Ubuntu 12.04 and later). For said distributions the Teamviewer_linux.deb package should is used.
This was noted in the help page of Teamviewer:
Notes to Multiarch: On newer 64-bit DEB-systems with Multiarch-support (Debian 7) teamviewer_linux_x64.deb cannot be installed because the package ia32-libs is not available anymore on these systems. In this case you can use teamviewer_linux.deb instead. |
So, here's how to install it:
1. Download it
wget http: //www .teamviewer.com /download/teamviewer_linux .deb |
2. Install Gdebi (Gdebi can Install local. Deb packages with automatic dependency resolution (it automatically downloads a ND installs the required packages).):
sudo apt-get install gdebi |
3. In the same directory, you download the. deb file just run:
sudo
gdebi teamviewer_linux.deb
