Hi all, how's it going?  I've been trying to install the MEGAsync client.  Using the APTus Extra tool throws up errors.  I tried a direct .deb download from the MEGA site.  They offer a version for Debian 9.  This should work, only it kicks up a dependency error:andy@sparky-dell-latitude:~/Downloads/Debs/Debian$ sudo dpkg -i megasync-Debian_9.0_amd64.deb

Apparently the .deb package has been compiled incorrectly.  The tool doesn't need:libcrypto++9.  It requires version 6.  Is there a way of correcting this?  Or is it necessary to wait for MEGA to fix the .deb package  ;)?
Backup, Backup, Backup.  If you're missing any of these, you ain't backed up.

I re-debianized the package yesterday, changing the libcrypto++9 to libcrypto++6 as the dependency, but it doesn't work.
Megasync still requires libcrypto++9.

Thanks pavroo, I've just updated my system.  When I try to install MEGA via APTus Extra.  I receive the following error message:


When I first installed SparkyLinux, I also received this message when I tried to update/upgrade my machine via the post-installation update/upgrade tool.  I had to manually do it from the terminal  ;).

I re-debianized the package, but did not upload to sparky repos.

Anyway, it's fixed now, refresh package list and try again.

That did the trick.  MEGA client installed from APTus Extra without an issue.  Thank you for fixing this.  It's really very much appreciated  ;)!
