You may want to add 'non-free' in your 'source.list' file. My
'/etc/apt/sources.list' looks like this:
deb http://mirrors.163.com/debian/ jessie main non-free
deb-src http://mirrors.163.com/debian/ jessie main non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main non-free
# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://mirrors.163.com/debian/ jessie-updates main non-free
deb-src http://mirrors.163.com/debian/ jessie-updates main non-free
