(this is for people that end up here while looking for MEGAsync on Void, like I did, but didn't want to install this due to the antiquated version)

I've made an updated template for MEGAsync here. It doesn't compile the package locally, relying instead on the Debian binary distributed by the platform (which also rolls in all dependencies). To install it, install xtools (xbps-install -S xtools) and just run the following the commands:

# Clone the repository.
git clone https://github.com/loukamb/void-packages

# Cd into the repository.
cd void-packages

# Bootstrap the environment.
./xbps-src binary-bootstrap

# Build megasync.
./xbps-src pkg megasync

# Install megasync.
xi megasync

I've already asked on the Void Linux whether I should PR this to void-packages but I was told that they're not adding anymore restricted packages.

FYI the repository has recently updated to 5.2.1.0, which is good news, but my fork of void-packages allows you to install 5.6.0.0 currently. Just letting you know.
