Did you install sleuthkit [https://github.com/sleuthkit/sleuthkit/releases/download/sleuthkit-4.12.0/sleuthkit-java\_4.12.0-1\_amd64.deb](https://github.com/sleuthkit/sleuthkit/releases/download/sleuthkit-4.12.0/sleuthkit-java_4.12.0-1_amd64.deb)? That is what autopsy is complaining about

Hi Mark!  
I had the same problem… Watch the script I made to solve it.  
[GitHub - FabMasu/Autopsy-installation-for-Linux: Autopsy installation for Linux Mint style distros](https://github.com/FabMasu/Autopsy-installation-for-Linux)  
It uses sudo, so it must be adapted for Debian users (installation as Root).  
Have a nice day!
