depends on your distro. i dont know if it is in the repositorys.
maybe you can take a look at
otherwhise you will find the .deb file here:
https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/linux/

you can install it with
sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
you need to start daemon after installation
if you are using systemd its done with that
sudo systemctl start teamviewer
you need to start the teamviewer client then (its an GUI application but 
not accessible via orca).
so just create an screenshot with "print" key and send it to me
chrys at linux-a11y.org

not sure if i can fix it (since i m not a debian user) but i could give 
an shot.
but i went to bed in about an hour. its late in germany :).
cheers chrys
