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.
