Team Viewer for Ubuntu Server 18.04.4 running on Raspberry Pi

I'm running Ubuntu Server 18.04.4 LTS (64bit) for Raspberry Pi from https://ubuntu.com/download/raspberry-pi on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (https://ubuntu.com/download/raspberry-pi/thank-you?version=18.04.4&architecture=arm64+raspi3). I downloaded Team Viewer Host for Raspberry Pi from https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/raspberry-pi/ . Unfortunatelly I the installation failed.

$ sudo dpkg -i ./teamviewer-host_armhf.deb
dpkg: error processing archive ./teamviewer-host_armhf.deb (--install):
package architecture (armhf) does not match system (arm64)
Errors were encountered while processing:
./teamviewer-host_armhf.deb

Seems like Team Viewer for Raspberry Pi is for armhf architecture only. I need the package for either amd64 or aarch64 instead.

$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 5.3.0-1017-raspi2 #19~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 17 11:14:07 UTC 2020 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Is there a package built for my needs already?

This issue applies to any arm64 device.

Did you ever resolve this? I have the same issue, but on a Pi 4 and Ubuntu 20.04

jtf

tested on

- Raspberry Pi 3 Model B

- Ubuntu 18.04.4 (arm64)

(http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/18.04.4/release/ubuntu-18.04.4-preinstalled-server-arm64+raspi3.img.xz)

$ wget https://download.teamviewer.com/download/linux/teamviewer-host_armhf.deb
$ dpkg --add-architecture armhf
$ apt-get update
$ dpkg -i teamviewer-host_armhf.deb
$ apt-get --fix-broken install
$ dpkg --add-architecture armhf

It seems ok but

$ teamviewer
Init...
Error: CheckCPU: unknown architecture 'aarch64'

Hi @DomLan ,

I've tried something mentioned in some other posts. However it did not work:

Hi @fkromer,

here there is a specific section for installing on Linux device: Older 64-bit DEB-systems without Multiarch (Ubuntu 12.03, Debian 6 and below) - and a mention for your wrong architecture message

Try it.

Let me know!

Regards

Hi @DomLan ,

I have Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (v3) https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-3-model-b-plus/ .

DomLan

Hi @fkromer

I do some verification and update you. Actually for the PI distribution it indicates v2 or higher

What kind of PI do you have?

Regards

fkromer

Hi @DomLan ,

I already tried. Unfortunatelly the installation fails as well:

$ sudo dpkg -i ./teamviewer_amd64.deb
dpkg: error processing archive ./teamviewer_amd64.deb (--install):
package architecture (amd64) does not match system (arm64)
Errors were encountered while processing:

Hi @fkromer,

try standard Ubuntu (Debian) package

Regards.
