Some time ago I have written a short "how-to" in relation to installing the Sleuthkit on Ubuntu. Recently I have tried to install the latest Sleuthkit 3.2.0 on Ubuntu 10.10 (32-bit) and ran into a problem when compiling it. It took me some time to figure out how to get it working.
Step 1:
sudo apt-get install libewf1 libewf-dev zlib1g-dev build-essential libexpat1-dev libfuse2 libfuse-dev fuse-utils gvfs-fuse libncurses5-dev libreadline-dev uuid-dev libssl-dev
Step 2:
Download and extract afflib 3.6.4
In terminal go to the extracted directory and run the usual
./configure
make
sudo make install
Step 3:
Download Sleuthkit 3.2.0 and extract it. Next I had to apply a quick fix by adding LDFLAGS link option to configure.ac file located inside the extracted sleuthkit-3.2.0 directory. Adding the following line LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -lsqlite3 -lpthread -ldl" seems to fix the problem.
I then navigated to sleuthkit-3.2.0 directory in terminal and run
./configure
make
sudo make install
