That "amd64" can be misleading. If you download the .deb and look at the INFO file, you'll see: *** (...) Architecture: amd64 Depends: lib32stdc++6 (>= 4.1.1-21), lib32asound2 (>> 1.0.14), ia32-libs, libc6-i386 (>= 2.7-1), lib32gcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1-21+ia32.libs.1.19), ia32- libs-gtk *** It's not a pure 64-bits package, it depends on a bunch of 32-bits compat libraries.
