Install Halcyon manually:

• Clone the Halcyon source repository to your preferred location, such as /app/halcyon.
• Ensure build-essential git zlib1g-dev are installed, and optionally install pigz.
• Ensure /app is writable by your user.

Then, activate Halcyon before each use:

$ eval "$( /app/halcyon/halcyon paths )"

Sorry, I just realised this won’t be enough.

Now that Debian 8 is released, this will be resolved soon.
