| Clone it -- https://github.com/meganz/MEGAsync | |
| > git clone https://github.com/meganz/MEGAsync.git | |
| > cd MEGAsync | |
| > git submodule update --init --recursive | |
| Get crypto++ | I think it's already in the repo (cryptopp-devel) if not: | |
| > wget https://www.cryptopp.com/cryptopp563.zip #Tested on version 5.6.3 | |
| > mkdir ~/crypto && cd ~/crypto && unzip ~/Downloads/cryptopp563.zip | |
| > make libcryptopp.so libcryptopp.a If anything goes wrong make clean. Note: only .so is needed..but what the heck. | |
| > sudo make install PREFIX=/usr | |
| make sure everything is set | |
| > ld -lcryptopp | |
| You should see something like this | |
| >> ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address | |
| >> /usr/lib64/libcryptopp.so: undefined reference to `pthread_key_create' | |
| >> /usr/lib64/libcryptopp.so: undefined reference to `pthread_getspecific' | |

| >> /usr/lib64/libcryptopp.so: undefined reference to `pthread_setspecific' | |
| Export CFLAG for c-ares | |
| > nano src/MEGASync/mega/contrib/build_sdk.sh | |
| Add it before ./configure on line 501 | |
| "export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2}"" | |
| So that it looks like this | |
| >> package_extract $name $cares_file $cares_dir | |
| >> export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2}" | |
| >> package_configure $name $cares_dir $install_dir "$cares_params" | |
| >> package_build $name $cares_dir | |
| >> package_install $name $cares_dir $install_dir | |
| Get qt5-devel -- We want qmake(5) not qmake-qt4 | |
| > sudo eopkg it qt5-base-devel | |
| OpenGl - needed due to dependency amplification | |
| > sudo eopkg it libglu-devel | |
| Configure | |
| Head back to MEGA root -- /src | |
| > ./configure | |
| > qmake MEGA.pro | |
| > lrelease MEGASync/MEGASync.pro | |
| > make | |
| That's it.. Exec located at MEGAsync/src/MEGASync/megasync | |
| Additional setup for ease | |
| > sudo cp megasync /usr/bin/megasync | |
| > sudo nano /usr/share/applications/megasync.desktop and paste this | |
| ``` | |

| sudo cp MEGAsync/src/MEGASync/gui/images/app_128.png /usr/share/pixmaps/mega.png | |
| ``` | |
| NOTES: | |
| I have this setup on 2 solus boxes. Only one of them has the MEGA icon instead of the regular folder icon. Note sure why. |

Missing components in my case are:
@dodecandrea, you may need to install system.devel as gleaned from the "Basics to Package Management" article on https://getsol.us/articles/package-management/basics/en/ :
sudo eopkg install -c system.devel
