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?

    $ 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 

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

    What kind of PI do you have?

    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!

    $ apt-get update
    $ dpkg -i teamviewer-host_armhf.deb
