Is your installation of the amd64 architecture?  On Mint the following
should work:

$ dpkg --print-architecture
amd64

Also, there is the 'arch' command.

If either command returns 'amd64', you may follow the steps I noted on
my blog:

If either command returns 'i386' or 'i686', thne your system is 32 bit
and the utilities will run directly.  A couple of additional packages
will be required for complete functionality.

As I recently enabled multilib on Slackware, I should document that as
well.
