Use compressed tarball, instead of rpm package .

https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/firebird/releases/download/R2_5_9/FirebirdSS-2.5.9.27139-0.amd64.tar.gz

You me have to install libtommath (apt-get install libtommath) and
create a softlink as /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.1 pointing
to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.1.1.0
