See this discussion:

Basically, there probably won’t be a compatible version of
xul-ext-pentadactyl in wheezy.  You can of course install the version
from testing/unstable, or just use the internal add-on manager (though
Pentadactyl is not currently installable through that route).

Cheers,
Michael
