 Clone it -- https://github.com/meganz/MEGAsync

 Get crypto++ | I think it's already in the repo (cryptopp-devel) if not:
 > wget https://www.cryptopp.com/cryptopp563.zip #Tested on version 5.6.3
 > mkdir ~/crypto && cd ~/crypto && unzip ~/Downloads/cryptopp563.zip
 > make libcryptopp.so libcryptopp.a If anything goes wrong make clean. Note: only .so is needed..but what the heck.
 > sudo make install PREFIX=/usr

 make sure everything is set 
 > ld -lcryptopp

 You should see something like this

 Export CFLAG for c-ares
 > nano src/MEGASync/mega/contrib/build_sdk.sh

 Add it before ./configure on line 655 //line 501 is obsolete

 "export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2}""

 So that it looks like this

 >> package_extract $name $cares_file $cares_dir
 >> export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2}"
 >> package_configure $name $cares_dir $install_dir "$cares_params"
 >> package_build $name $cares_dir
 >> package_install $name $cares_dir $install_dir


 Get qt5-devel -- We want qmake(5) // added qt5-tools-devel
 > sudo eopkg it qt5-base-devel qt5-tools-devel

 OpenGl - needed due to dependency amplification 
 > sudo eopkg it libglu-devel

 Libraw - needed in make //added as make failed without it
 > sudo eopkg it libraw-devel

 Qt5-svg - needed in make //added as make failed without it
 > sudo eopkg it qt5-svg-devel

 Sqlite3 - needed in make //added as make failed without it
 > sudo eopkg it sqlite3-devel

 Configure
 Head back to MEGA root -- ~/MEGAsync/src

 > ./configure
 > qmake MEGA.pro
 > lrelease MEGASync/MEGASync.pro
 > make

 That's it.. Exec located at MEGAsync/src/MEGASync/megasync

 Additional setup for ease

 > sudo cp megasync /usr/bin/megasync
 > sudo nano /usr/share/applications/megasync.desktop and paste this

 ```

 And finally to get the icon in the app tray
 sudo cp MEGAsync/src/MEGASync/gui/images/app_128.png /usr/share/pixmaps/mega.png

 NOTES:
 I have this setup on 2 solus boxes. Only one of them has the MEGA icon instead of the regular folder icon. Note sure why.
