Hello.
I want to install wickr_2.3.4 on Debian 7 x64 but get following error :

s$ sudo dpkg -i wickr_2.3.4_amd64.deb

What is your idea?

I think it is better to use apt-get install <package>.

"wickr" not exist.

????

Senseless post.

https://www.wickr.com/downloads/

I mean is that "apt-get install wickr" can't find the package.

The package 'wickr_2.3.4' is for Debian 8 Jessie. EDIT : See post #7.

The missing Jessie packages, libicu52 etc. can (may be) be built on Debian Wheezy.

( The easy way is of course to install Debian 8 Jessie.) EDIT : See post #7.

If I added "sid" can I install it on Wheezy?

Re #8.

It seems that the package wickr_2.3.4 is for Ubuntu 15.04 : Tested OK here.
As Ubuntu is based on 'Debian Sid', the package may also work with Sid.

But just adding "sid" to Wheezy : I don't think so.
Debian Sid is very different from "Old stable Debian Wheezy".
And some conflicts will most certainly appear.

Back-porting packages : I was stopped by libav : Build dependency issues / conflicts.
( May not be impossible. But not worth the effort, if Wheezy gets trashed.)

Conclusion : Install Ubuntu 15.04 or Debian Sid on a spare partition,
if you want to try out wickr_2.3.4 .
