[Slackbuilds-users] MEGAsync does not compile

[Jeremy Hansen]

Are you talking about it failing because it was missing expected
dependencies? Because it built correctly after I installed all the required
dependencies on a clean system with a full Slackware install (which is the
base that SBo expects) without needing to make any tweaks.

On top of having a full Slackware install, you need to make sure you
install the packages listed in the REQUIRES field in the MEGAsync.info
file, which in turn requires you to install the dependencies of those
dependencies, and the dependencies of those dependencies, and on. You can
simplify this with one of the many tools used to interact with SBo.

I personally use sbopkg to build the packages and queues of packages, and
its companion app, sqg (SlackBuild queue generator), that will generate
queues for sbopkg to build.
