I installed quite recently Tryton on a debian 8.6 (don't know its
name).
Basically what I do is the following:
- install python
- install postgresql
- install psycopg (package: python-psycopg2)
- install lxml (package: python-lxml)
Then as the user I intend to run tryton as I install everything from
pip in the user directory (with the --user switch)[1].
Then it should just run and you can follow the documentation from
http://doc.tryton.org/4.2/trytond/doc/index.html#first-steps
But of course you could also just install the trytond packages (and
probably some others) from the debian distribution. But they won't be
the brand new 4.2 release of course. And I must confess I don't know
at all how they are set up (but Matthias might help you).

[1]: Note that you might prefer using virtual environment, it is
a good practice. You should definitively learn and use them if
you intend to do python programming.
