There’s a Debian package available for Citrix Receiver, so in principle this task should be trivial.
It’s not.
Simply installing the package leaves you with a SSL error whenever you try to connect to a Citrix resource. You need to jump through a couple of extra hoops to get it actually working.
Installing the Package
Download the package from here (scroll down to the “Debian Packages” section).
Install it.
sudo dpkg -i icaclient_13.10.0.20_amd64.deb
Now you need to sort out the SSL certificates.
Sorting the Certificates
Link in the certificates (these should already be resident somewhere on your machine).
sudo ln -s /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/* /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts/
Create a hash for each certificate.
sudo c_rehash /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts/
And you are ready to roll. Connect to your Citrix resources. Enjoy.
🚨 Update
The latest package is available here. Download the latest .deb
file and then install.
# Remove all trace of old version.
sudo dpkg --purge icaclient
# Install new version.
sudo dpkg -i icaclient_22.12.0.12_amd64.deb
Choose not to install the app protection component.
The process for updating SSL certificates is also different.
# Remove all old certificates.
sudo rm -rf /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts
# Copy across current certificates.
sudo ln -s /etc/ssl/certs /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts
# Rehash.
sudo /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/util/ctx_rehash
