@serafeimg, Please read how to install packages from AUR: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository and https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AUR_helpers. The MEGAsync folder is a consequence of cloning the megasync git repo (https://github.com/meganz/MEGAsync.git) which is the source for this AUR package as defined in PKGBUILD.

Downloading the prebuilt binary is not a solution for this package because here it's built from source, it's just an alternative way of getting megasync. And downloading the binary by yourself is also not an optimal solution because it prevents automatic updates. If you want to use the megasync binary, it's better to use https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/megasync-bin which takes the binary from exactly the same source as you did but does this in a way which is better suited for Arch.

When I clone the repo with the command: git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/megasync.git

no file or folder with the name MEGAsync exist.

The solution for me was to download and install the package with: wget https://mega.nz/linux/repo/Arch_Extra/x86_64/megasync-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst && sudo pacman -U \"$PWD/megasync-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst\"

as instructed here: https://mega.io/desktop#download

With the latest update, I get the following error during installation/update:

==> Validating source files with sha256sums...
    MEGAsync ... NOT FOUND
    meganz-sdk ... Skipped
    010-megasync-libpdfium.patch ... Passed
    020-megasync-ffmpeg.patch ... Passed
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

I guess the cause is that MEGAsync (obtained by cloning a git repo tag) is a folder, and it does not have a sha256 sum. Previously, it was marked to be skipped from the check, just like the magenz-sdk folder. What is the intended behavior here?

@TheOmegaCarrot, in my case, I had to install qt5-quickcontrols2 and qt5-graphicaleffects which were not listed as dependencies. Afterward, everything worked fine.

As soon as the latest version came up it had Issue Detected with 67 files suddenly duplicated...? what's going on, and what;s changed, and how am I supposed to respond to it...

@JPT48 Sorry, but Manjaro is not supported. Please seek help in your distribution's support channels. The package is building and running fine in Arch Linux. As @FabioLolix stated, the base-devel package is assumed to be installed when building Arch Linux packages. The Arch Wiki establishes that dependencies of base-devel should not be listed in PKGBUILDs.

JPT48 commented on 2024-03-05 10:36 (UTC)

@FabioLolix then this is a manjaro issue?

FabioLolix commented on 2024-03-04 18:52 (UTC)

@JPT48 installing the base-devel package is a pre-requistite for using the AUR https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites

JPT48 commented on 2024-03-04 18:51 (UTC)

Hi, please add these dependencies: patch, autoconf, automake, make

or better, the build-essentials package, whatever it's name actually is on arch.

thanks
