Thanks. What error did you get when you tried to install the .deb file?

There is a conflict with libtsk.so, which sleuthkit-java is trying to install and you also got from libtsk package.
In a future release, sleuthkit-java package depends on sleuthkit package. There just wasn't an official libtsk package for the most recent 4.6.0 release. So, we packaged it ourselves so that we could more easily make changes.
At a minimum, the next version of this should more clearly state that it conflicts with libtsk13. Did you overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtsk.so.13' when you did it manually?
No! I simply decompress the sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb and I copied the files into the matching directories (e.g. /usr/share/java/etc.) I never touched libtsk13. If you read the sleuthkit-users mailing list, the user Danilo M. wrote that he removed libtsk13 and the sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb worked. I did not remove libtsk13, so sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb does not work, but autopsy works because the decompression and manual copying of the content of /sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb
still having this issue with the latest release, downloaded today. Nanni's fix works, though. Followed all instructions as written in the zip file, received error message re: could not find sleuthkit.jar.
UPDATE: Nope. Did not work after all. received an error pertaining to "vmdk.so" not being able to open a shared file or something (went by so fast I missed it); however, splash screen pops and main window opens - but I cannot start a case - no functionality. Have tried to replicate the vmdk error, but no luck.
ideas?

I installed following your procedure, but when I tried to install sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb I got an error. If I try to launch Autopsy sh ./autopsy I got an error, it cannot find the sluethkit-4.6.0.jar file: ERROR: /usr/share/java/sleuthkit-4.6.0.jar not found, please install the sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb file. So, I used Engrampa Archive Manager and I extract the file inside the sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb into the matching directories of my system (e.g. /usr/share/java, etc.) then when I ran ./autopsy it worked! For working on local disk, you can simply run sudo ./autopsy That's all. Finally the problem is only with the sleuthkit-java_4.6.0-1_amd64.deb PS.1: If you get this error: ERROR: JAVA_HOME environment variable must be defined You can logout then login in your system and the variable is set or try to write export JAVA_HOME, as written by DKARPO in this issues repo. PS.2: Autopsy for Linux seems faster than for Windows ;-)
