It +keeps local folders in sync with your MEGA account, supports selective +sync and backups, and runs as a system-tray application. + +This is a binary repack of MEGA's official prebuilt Debian package: MEGA +does not ship a Slackware build, and building from source pulls in the +MEGA SDK plus a large set of vcpkg-managed dependencies at build time. +The binary links against Slackware's own Qt5 and bundles its ffmpeg +libraries under /opt/megasync/lib, so no extra deps are required. + +The package also bundles the file-manager integration plugins: + + * dolphin (KDE) - sync-status emblems and context-menu actions + * thunar (Xfce) - context-menu actions + +These plugins are loaded only by their respective file manager; if you +do not run dolphin or thunar they simply sit unused. + +Two configuration files are installed as .new so they never overwrite an +admin-tuned copy: + + /etc/udev/rules.d/99-megasync-udev.rules.new + /etc/sysctl.d/99-megasync-inotify-limit.conf.new + +The sysctl file raises the inotify watch limit, useful when syncing +large folder trees. To activate a file, remove the .new suffix and +reload (udevadm control --reload / sysctl --system). + +This package is x86_64 only; MEGA ships no 32-bit build. |
