You can install polarssl and dislocker on Ubuntu 16.04 by following TuxDiary - dislocker: decrypt BitLocker encrypted volumes.
Open the terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install libmbedcrypto0 libmbedtls-dev libfuse-dev
If git is not installed on your system you can install git by running the following command. Open the terminal and type:
sudo apt install git
Then you can install dislocker from source using git. Open the terminal and type the below commands.
git clone https://github.com/Aorimn/dislocker.git
cd dislocker
cmake .
make
sudo make install
Now you can start using dislocker. It works fine.
