Arch Linux User Repository

try WKD... or https://xff.cz/key.txt

Can't build latest as I can't find the PGP key anywhere. None of the usual keyservers seems to serve it and I'm not seeing it on the project page either. Any pointers?

smoak: I think all packages assume you have base-devel group installed and packages from this group don't need to be in makedepends.

See https://megous.com/dl/tmp/ee10f58a6c52e55d.png

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD

It seems that meson errors without pkgconf being installed:

megatools-1.11.0-git-20211030/meson.build:12:0: ERROR: Pkg-config binary for machine 1 not found. Giving up.  

You should probably add pkgconf to the makedepends:

Adopted! :)

@flacks You can adopt the package if you like.

License is also GPL2 not, GPL.

openssl is also not needed as a depends, as per namcap.

-D man=true as a meson parameter and docbook2x as a makedepends are both missing to generate documentation as well.

Version 1.11.0.git.20200404 either never existed, or was removed on purpose. Latest version for today is 1.11.0-git-20200830.

I get a 404 when attempting to install:

Can't use it since my account was created after 11/6/2018

Here is the disclaimer from megatools website:

Read this issue if you've registered an account via mega.nz web client since 11/6/2018. You'll not be able to use your account with megatools. You can still use megatools to download publicly exported files for free, or use accounts created before 11/6/2018. You may also be able to register accounts with megatools, and those will work with megatools. You just can't use the new style accounts that mega's website creates now.

It also work for armv6h architecture ;)

Re-build with debug options, run in gdb and send a bactrace report to https://github.com/megous/megatools/issues I don't see anything obviously relevant in testing, that could cause issues.

I don't know why, but in the last two days. 'megadl' seg faults on any input I've given it. I have testing repos enabled.

> checking for pkg-config... no You're missing base-devel packages. pkgconfig in particular.

Fixed, thanks.

madnessmike: added Upgrade recommended, because 1.9.96 started failing on big remote directories since mega.nz started compressing some server responses.

Hello, can you add support for armv7h architecture in the PKGBUILD? I compiled it on a Raspberry Pi 2 and it works just fine :)

Please add 'autoreconf -fi' after 'cd "megatools-${pkgver}"' in build() to avoid "./libtool: line 7905: func_munge_path_list: command not found" Error.

python2 is required in makedeps

dlh: There's something wrong with your OpenSSL installation.

Hey, so I've tried to mount the MEGA drive as a filesystem and here's what comes up at the login stage: ERROR: Can't login to mega.co.nz: API call 'us' failed: Server returned error EARGS Any ideas?

I don't plan to make any new releases soon, unless someone will report some significant bug, or mega changes API.

@xavier83: It's not planned to have any significant new features. 1.9.92 is a stable branch (on github). If there will be 2.0, it will be based on this stable branch, and not on the master branch. Master branch is not maintained, nor developed.

@megous: is a 2.0 planned very soon? hope the licensing issues have been resolved.

Megatools is alive and well, with newest set of updates from 2014-08-24.

Unflagged. Indeed, it's uptodate.

This package still functions and is not out of date. Although 1.9.91 is the final version of this software, it is not out of date.

Out of date just because the author no longer endorses it? 1.9.91 is the newest version and it still works.

el paquete esta roto, porque los builds de megous estan con error 404.

Megatools is no more, it seems. From the authors website: http://megatools.megous.com/ "Dear users, I decided to pull down megatools, because of uncertainty around the new Mega API license. There are several clauses that make megatools either useless in certain situations, or complicate its use. For example: API user can't make the API Key available to anyone else or use another person's or entity's API Key; Therefore megatools can't have API key included, and each user will need to get theirs. You need an account to get one. And you need API key to create and account with megatools. Catch 22. Megatools also don't support API keys at all ATM. Any use of megatools thus violates the new license/TOS. On reasonable notice, you will allow MEGA access to your systems, data, and logs as well as any communications, legal documents, and source code related to or arising out of your User Application or your use of the API to check compliance with your obligations under these API/SDK terms. No, I don't agree to grant access to my systems for these vague puropses at Mega's discretion. 3.6 YOU WILL INDEMNIFY, PAY THE COSTS OF DEFENSE, AND HOLD HARMLESS MEGA AGAINST ANY LOSSES, COSTS (INCLUDING SOLICITOR AND CLIENT COSTS), DAMAGES, EXPENSES, DEMANDS OR LIABILITY, WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING IN EACH CASE NEGLIGENCE), OR EQUITY OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE API, YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE END USER, ANY USE OF APPROVED DATA BY YOU OR ANY END USER, OR ANY USE OF YOUR USER APPLICATION, OR WHICH IS SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY MEGA AS A RESULT OF ANY BREACH BY YOU OF YOUR OBLIGATIONS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED IN THESE API/SDK TERMS. Well. No, I will not take any responsibility for the actions of megatools users, even if they were allowed by my violation of API license terms. The source code is still available on github, because it's impossible to pull down GPL code once it was published, but I don't endorse its use." A great shame, it was a fine set of tools.
