sudo apt-get install -f would only remove megasync.

Workaround Had to go manually download and install libcrypto++9v5 from the Ubuntu website which is only available in Xenial repository.

Can the installer be updated to address this?

@carlzoo Mint 19 is based on Ubuntu 18.04, not 16.04 you should have installed the compatible Ubuntu 18.04 package from https://mega.nz/sync. I'd recommend you to uninstall both megasync and libcrypto++9v5 and then proceed with the installation of megasync for Ubuntu 18.04. In any case, we will list a package for Mint 19 asap.
