While upgrading from Linux Mint 21.3 to 22.0, MEGAsync needed to be removed.
Now, when trying to reinstall it, the following incompatibility message is displayed:

dependency is not satisfiable: libqt5core5a (>= 5.15.1)

It seems that Linux Mint 22.0 has transitioned to a different package name for the Qt library, from libqt5core5a to libqt5core5t64.

A temporary solution is to create a symbolic link:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5a

And then reinstalling MEGAsync.

Hi,
We have already released a new version for Mint 22, can you update your desktop app to see if the issue persists?

Please log out your account (go to your Desktop app interface - Settings - Account - Log out) and then reinstall the Desktop app from this link: https://mega.io/desktop (please DO NOT un-install anything, simply install again).

[PS: Ensure you have your Recovery Key backed up in case you forget your password and need to reset it - https://mega.nz/keybackup]
