Unable to Upgrade/Install RealVNC Server v7.12.0 on RPi
I'm encountering a problem with upgrading/installing the VNC-Server-7.12.0-Linux-ARM.deb package onto a Raspberry Pi currently running Debian v12.6 (Bookworm) and VNC-Server-7.11.1. Three occurrences for 'Illegal instruction' are observed during installation (see below), which resulted in the server failing to startup on boot/reboot. Please advise on how I could resolve those three error messages.

Forgot to mention that the RPi platform in question is with the Raspberry Pi Zero W... of which I've three that are all behaving the same when trying to update their RealVNC Server from v7.11.1 to v7.12.0.
Unsuccessful upgrade attempts via 'apt install':
