Not only already packaged, but already a good candidate for Jessie and
available in wheezy-backports.

And, since it uses gnuradio, uhd-host and gr-osmosdr, it allows one
to make use of a large amount of available hardware:

 * sysmocom OsmoSDR
 * FUNcube Dongle
 * FUNcube Dongle Pro+
 * IQ File Source
 * Osmocom RTLSDR
 * RTLSDR TCP Client
 * Ettus USRP Devices
 * Osmocom MiriSDR
 * HackRF Jawbreaker
 * nuand bladeRF
 * RFSPACE Receivers
 * AIRSPY Receiver

I invite everyone in debian-hams to try out gqrx!
And, while I am promoting, you may also be interested
in quisk, sdrangelove, and freedv.
