In order for Autopsy to run properly, snap connections will need to be properly setup, which can be done by running this script: `snap connections autopsy | sed -nE 's/^[^ ]* *([^ ]*) *- *- *$/\1/p' | xargs -I{} sudo snap connect {}`. See the [snap README](./snap/README.md) for more information. # Installing Prerequisites - **Linux**: Run [`linux_macos_install_scripts/install_prereqs_ubuntu.sh`](./linux_macos_install_scripts/install_prereqs_ubuntu.sh). -- GitLab
