You cannot simply install a package from Sid (unstable) if you are not running Sid. You will encounter zillions of dependency problems that way. What release are you running? Sid? Stretch? Jessie? In general it's a VERY bad idea to use dpkg to install a package rather than apt-get or aptitude as descendant_command suggested. It is possible to do some apt-pinning to install an unstable package into testing but you really need to know what you're doing. I wouldn't recommend that route for a novice.

Also have a look here: https://wiki.debian.org/AptPreferenc...direct=Pinning
But Jessie is now the Stable release in Debian. It is not recommended to use apt-pinning involving stable and unstable releases. Your decision to install Jessie (Stable) means that you are NOT going to get the latest cutting-edge versions of all packages. If that's what you want then you should be running Sid rather than Jessie. A third option is to run Stretch (Testing) and do the occasional bit of pinning (using unstable versions of some packages). It's your machine so it's your call.

asoko2, packet management is the single most important thing to understand when you use linux.
forget your problem for a while and read up on it, first wikipedia, then the debian wiki linked earlier.
