First add the i386 architecture to your system:

{{{
$ dpkg --add-architecture i386
$ dpkg --print-architecture
amd64
$ dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
i386
}}}

I am not sure if one has to perform some other tasks on that page like
{{{

$ dpkg --print-foreign-architectures

In 2018, [[https://www.citrix.com/downloads/citrix-receiver/linux/receiver-for-linux-latest.html|Citrix Receiver]] was replaced by Citrix Workspace app.
Download the official Citrix Workspace app for Debian available [[https://www.citrix.com/downloads/workspace-app/linux/workspace-app-for-linux-latest.html|here]] and install it using dpkg -i as root (or with sudo). You do '''not''', in my experience, need to install anything from stretch. You will (I assume) need the dependencies in citrix's .deb - on my gnome installation they were already installed

As noted above, if you get an ssl error when connecting then the following should fix it:

{{{
# ln -s /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/* /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts/
}}}

This is presumably not always needed -- i assume it depends on where you are connecting, but i needed it today (30 May 2020).

Citrix's packaging is not high quality, for example:
 * files are installed in /opt;
 * there are multiple statically linked files;
 * there are multiple embedded libraries;
 * the postinst is several scripts pasted together;
 * the postinst and makes a number of modifications to your system;
 * the postinst attempts to integrate with netscape;
 * the postinst installs a plugin for either gstreamer1.0 or 0.10.0 depending on which version it finds installed (there are comments in the postinst that say 0.10 is preferred, but in my experience it works fine with 1.0);
 * the postinst deletes files in $HOME for every user.

These deficiencies apply to all versions from (at least) 13 to 20.

Installing icaclient_13 on Wheezy

If you are using a custom Linux kernel for 64-bit PC and want to run 32-bit programs, then you have to set the CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION Linux build configuration option, otherwise you won't be able to run 32-bit binaries.

First add the i386 architecture to your system:

$ dpkg --add-architecture i386
$ dpkg --print-architecture
amd64
$ dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
i386

As mentioned on mahesha.com (see sources) one needs to install files listed below.

$ aptitude install libxp6:i386
$ aptitude install libsm6:i386
$ aptitude install libxmu6:i386
$ aptitude install libxinerama1:i386
$ aptitude install libglib2.0-0:i386
$ aptitude install libxft2:i386
$ aptitude install libgtk2.0-0:i386

and

deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://http.us.debian...snip

Ubuntu.com (see sources) shows how to get rid of the nspluginwrapper dependency.

$ cd ~/Downloads
$ mkdir ica_temp
$ dpkg-deb -x icaclient_13.0.0_amd64.deb ica_temp
$ dpkg-deb --control icaclient_13.0.0_amd64.deb ica_temp/DEBIAN
$ su
# emacs ica_temp/DEBIAN/control

And get rid of nspluginwrapper in the section Depends.

Depends: ...nspluginwrapper...

Rebuild the package.

$ dpkg -b ica_temp icaclient-modified.deb

Install this modified package.

$ su
# dpkg -i icaclient-modified.deb

As last mission I had to export ThawtePremiumServerCA.crt into folder /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts as PEM file. It's quite possible that not everyone would have to do this last thing. Update: It turned out that the above mentioned is not needed.

One way to launch a session is like so: /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/wfica.sh launch.ica. Update: Launching like this lead to an error message SSL error, Contact your helpdesk with the following information: A network error occorred (SSL error 4).

Installing icaclient_13 on Jessie

Download the official citrix receiver for Debian available here and run the following commands:

$ sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0
$ sudo dpkg -i icaclient_13.3.0.344519_amd64.deb

Note: Please modify the above command based on the latest icaclient version

You will neeed to configure Iceweasel to run the "launch.ica" file via "/opt/Citrix/ICAClient/wfica.sh"

Below is the fix for the SSL error

$ sudo ln -s /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/* /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts/

In 2018, Citrix Receiver was replaced by Citrix Workspace app. Download the official Citrix Workspace app for Debian available here and download libwebkitgtk-1.0-0, libicu57, and libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0 from Stretch, then run the following command:

$ sudo dpkg -i libicu57_57.1-6+deb9u2_amd64.deb libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0_2.4.11-3_amd64.deb libwebkitgtk-1.0-0_2.4.11-3_amd64.deb icaclient_19.3.0.5_amd64.deb
