So, I was trying to install the sync client for Mega (http://mega.nz) on my Ubuntu 15.10 install. Yes, I know it's pre-release, but here is my question: When i install the .dep file, I get that

Errors were encountered while processing:
 megasync
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of megasync:
 megasync depends on libcrypto++9; however:
  Package libcrypto++9 is not installed.

When I then try to install libcrypto++9, I get the following error:

E: Package 'libcrypto++9' has no installation candidate

It then tells me that libcrypto++9v5 replaces it, but installing that doesn't satisfy MegaSync.

A quick Google search reveals that the v5 means "compiled using gcc5". Alas, the library is still the same. Why the new name, and how can I install my .deb file?

For Ubuntu 15.10 (All Versions):

Add this repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list (check here for other versions):

deb https://mega.nz/linux/MEGAsync/xUbuntu_15.10/ ./

Get/Add the key:

wget -O - https://mega.nz/linux/MEGAsync/xUbuntu_15.10/Release.key | sudo apt-key add -

Update: sudo apt-get update

Install MEGASync:

sudo apt-get install megasync

For Nautilus plugin:

sudo apt-get install nautilus-megasync

either download packages libcrypto++9 from here and install it using command :

sudo dpkg -i libcrypto++9_5.6.1-6+deb8u1build0.15.04.1_amd64.deb

or

it is in universal packages so add universal repository if not added and install using command 

sudo apt-get install libcrypto++9

i have tested this in ubuntu 14.04 so megasync also depending on libc-ares2 packages download it from here and install it using command 

sudo dpkg -i libc-ares2_1.10.0-2_amd64.deb

or

it is available in main Ubuntu repository so add if not added and install using command 

sudo apt-get install libc-ares2

then try to install megasync

sudo dpkg -i megasync-xUbuntu_15.04_amd64.deb

None of the solutions I found in the web worked so I tried the following:

I downloaded libcrypto++9 from here, and installed it as a .deb. http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libc/libcrypto++/libcrypto++9_5.6.1-6_amd64.deb

The same for libc6 from: http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.31-4_amd64.deb

Then I downloaded libqt5gui5-gles_5.15.1+dfsg-2_amd64.deb from http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/qtbase-opensource-src-gles/libqt5gui5-gles_5.15.1+dfsg-2_amd64.deb

You should do it with any package that is missing in your own configuration. I recomend this website to find them: https://pkgs.org/
