In the past, on Debian/buster, I did this, not having encountered 
problems, but of course I cannot give you any warranty for your 
installation (! Note that my notes and experience is not for the most 
up-to-date version of cherrytree !):

1.) download the latest version of the required dependency which is no 
more in current stable or newer Debian repositories:
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/amd64/python-gtksourceview2/download

2.) download the cherrytree *.deb package:
https://www.giuspen.com/cherrytree/#downl

3.) install both packages with the following commands:
apt --no-install-recommends --no-install-suggests install 
./python-gtksourceview2_2.10.1-3_amd64.deb
apt install ./cherrytree_0.38.10-0_all.deb


Later on I moved to this solution, which I am currently running on 
Debian/testing: if you consider the usage of  flatpak  to be an option 
for you then could try it. Actually I recommend this over the first, 
above mentioned older solution.Keep in mind that using flatpak there 
will be install a "containerized, very well defined mini-linux 
environment" for you, which is then taken advantage of by the apps which 
you install (by a flatpak command) to run "inside" this flatpak base 
environment. The base flatpak installation and a first graphical app 
depending on Gtk, like cherrytree, will occupy some 2 GB of storage space.

1.) install  flatpak
apt install flatpak

2.) install cherrytree as an flatpak app; this will automatically 
install also all the by cherrytree needed flatpak base environment 
components
flatpak install flathub com.giuspen.cherrytree

3.) run and enjoy cherrytree
flatpak run com.giuspen.cherrytree

I am using cherrytree like this for a year now without having run into 
any trouble.


If your host desktop environment is Plasma (KDE) and not Gtk (GNOME) 
based, then you may want to consider to also add Debian package 
xdg-desktop-portal-kde  to your KDE Plasma installation from the usual 
Debian repository with the usual apt command, so that GTK apps can use 
KDE dialogs, and also flatpak apps can access native KDE dialogs. etc.
I finally have kept a note stating the following concerning the 
xdg-desktop-portal-kde addition, although I cannot explain anywmore why 
I made this and kept the note on it:
export GTK_USE_PORTAL=1	  add this to the end of your ~/.profile 
assuming your system doesn't use either ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login.

Good Luck! Marco.

thanks friends!
-------------------------------------
kaye@laptop:~$  flatpak install flathub com.giuspen.cherrytree
Note that the directories
'/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share'
'/home/kaye/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share'
are not in the search path set by the XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable, so
applications installed by Flatpak may not appear on your desktop until the
session is restarted.
Looking for matches…
error: No remote refs found similar to ‘flathub’
----------------------------------------

if it matters, my system:
Kernel: 4.19.0-6-amd64 x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: Xfce 4.12.4
Distro: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)

Try this before your command:
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

If it doesn't work, restart the system (https://flatpak.org/setup/Debian/).

Ew. In the html version, this bit showed up (or didn't) as white on
white :-)
