  1. The deb file you downloaded is from https://hadler.me/linux/forticlient-sslvpn-deb-packages/. The package maintainer there tried to build .deb files for easier installation of Forticlient–SSLVPN which comes with a .tar.gz package.

    But I think, the package maintainer wrongly included libpango-1.0-0 in the dependency list in packages for releases older than 15.04. libpango-1.0-0 pulls libpango1.0-0 package in recent releases, but in 12.04 there is no libpango-1.0-0. You need to install libpango1.0-0 for that.

    The easiest solution I think (I haven't tested this) to decompress and re-build the deb again. First remove the package using 

    sudo dpkg -P forticlient-sslvpn

    Then proceed with these steps:

    Install dpkg-dev package

    sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev

    Make a directory to extract

    mkdir forticlient-sslvpn

    Extract the deb file to it

    dpkg-deb -R forticlient-sslvpn_4.4.2312-1_amd64.deb forticlient-sslvpn/

    Go to the forticlient-sslvpn/DEBIAN folder and open control file. Change the libpango-1.0-0 in the line Depends: to libpango1.0-0. Save the file.

    Return back out of the forticlient-sslvpn directory.

    Use this command to build the package again.

     dpkg-deb -b forticlient-sslvpn

    This should create a deb file named forticlient-sslvpn.deb. Install it with 

     sudo dpkg -i forticlient-sslvpn.deb

    Then install any missing dependencies using 

     sudo apt-get -f install

    Hope that helps.
